pageant mothers are



totally insane. if they think dressing babies and young children is the road to self esteem and confidence, they've lost their minds.

dressing young children like whores and pole dancers before they can even speak or read is just plain insanity.

I worry that they are setting these girls up to believe that their only value lays in being beautiful and if they're not then they are somehow lesser beings.

^^This. It's pathetic how these women teach their kids that the physical is more important than anything else. These moms get some sort of validation by parading this children around, and it will be a miracle if any of the girls becomes productive citizens who contribute anything worthwhile to society. Disgusting...

I was so glad to see Micki and Eden making their appearances on this - NOT!

Seriously, though, that dad on there made me so mad. He felt it was wrong ... yet he did nothing to stop it. Don't even get me started on the mom ... She needed some intense therapy instead of living through her daughter! (This was the blonde lady ... not sure what her name was, though.)

Just saw the episode and my heart broke for the mom, and for the daughter too. The mom has some issues she has to work out and even I can see that she is putting her daughter out there to continue grandma's teachings. She is using her daughter to say "Look what I did ! I am worthy!" and the shame is .... she is teaching her daughter the same lessons that hurt her.
