They create unrealistic beauty for young girls and introduce sexualizing women when they are still children.

Parents are forcing their children to compete at beauty pageants and claim that their kids really like it. Also, the parents whiten the teeth of their TODDLERS, wax their eyebrows, spray them with spray-tan, put fake eyelashes on their eyelashes and sexualize their toddlers clothes, behavior and dancing. Just for the parents' fun or the confirmation that their kid is beautiful... CPS should really be on the parents toes. Putting in on TV on a network called The Learning Channel (TLC) is ridiculous. I won't be shocked when I hear that a parent allowed plastic surgery on his or her kid to win a pageant but I will be sad because I know that these parents have no limits to win and can't see that fact anymore.

Child beauty pageants should be STOPPED. Where do we draw the line between "beauty pageant" and "child pornography" These pageant directors and especially the parents are doing nothing but exploiting thees children in order to make money. Theses children should be growing up playing, and wanting to be doctors, or police officers, or super heros. NOT caring about what they look like and believing that what they look like or that they look better then the other little girl is the only thing that matters or is what makes a persons self worth. Thats not how child hood should be, these parents should be arrested for what they put there children through. I whole heartedly believe that there should be an age restriction to anything that sexualizes a person, especially a little girl. Im a nearly 30 year old man, and even i am disgusted by what these so called "beauty pageants" do to our children. Our society is becoming so twisted and our since of right and wrong is becoming so skewed, all in the order of making "reality TV" that we have lost sight of whats morally right and wrong, and these child pageants are definitely WRONG to the fullest extend. So lets get the make up, and fake breasts off our children and lets put them back in the playgrounds where they belong.

its honestly sick watching these poor babies get spray tanned and put in heels. childhood is for playing in the dirt not worrying about your makeup being perfect for a judge. someone needs to shut this down.
