Toddlers and Tiaras

Toddlers and Tiaras 2 Screaming crowds (mostly hysterical aims), make-up, hair extensions, teased hairstyles, clouds of hairspray, fake teeth, false eyelashes, spray tans, elegant costumes, weird postures, twitched face expressions, tiaras, trophies, gold and more or less talent are the ingredients for the usual children beauty pageants. Those young girls that compete in these beauty contests are between ages 3 to 10 and sometimes even younger than 2 years old and usu eithery have one only goal, get the money and get the tiara (tiara and/or loot and/or ribbon).Of course, these insane mothers/fathers (so called parents) enter these runty beauties not at their get request into these pageants. They fill in the applications on time, pay the participation fee, create or buy the outfit, establish the type of performance for the talent section, usually some song or dancing is a very popular talent to be displayed. The moms create and exercise the hairstyle and make-up, keep a strict reh earsal schedule, hire trainers if the mom herself put forwardnot coach the whole thing, travel hundreds of miles with their children just to spend a pass on an emotional roller coaster and hopefully win the competition.So why do these mothers dedicate their young girls with this run through? Well, first of all, For them to have fun and experience dress-up in a more complex environment. Because she likes it and because she is beautiful, etc. Off the record more, the answers include the For the money and Because she has to be number one. Anyway, for myself, the most feared answer to that question would be Because I used to participate in much(prenominal) contests myself, and no matter how that sentenced ends (I always won or Ive never won, but I hump she can do it ). What can a child learn by being a professional/serial beauty pageant contestant?Well, promote the sense of competition and having a hobby to be dedicated to is okay, spending time with mom is great, but when you become a winning machine, and a Tiara pursuer collector, serious psychological occupations can occur. These contests promote Physical Beauty as the main value, with the talent section being a close second. These children, especially these little girls are going to pay so much attention to her looks and knowing she is being judged for it, will be very susceptible to develop eating disorders, such as Anorexia or Bulimia.Also, paranoid features can occur as a response to the, No other girl here is your friend between mother and daughter and you just smile on the outside and develop a little hatred inside for all other competitors. This excessively brings another problem to my mind, dissimulation as a form of interaction, which can be used outside contests too and become a habit. All those screaming crowds and rivers of tears and having to put on an act and playing a role could lead to learning hysteric behaviors. Anxiety is no stranger for these young girls either.If at first exhibi tion they seem to learn how to be prepared for stressful situation, think of this what if the girl does not really want to participate and does this only to please her mother? What if she cant actually dance or sing, but she has to do that anyway? And what if she feels embarrassed? What if she would rather like to spend time with friends in her home township and not in some cheap hotel miles away from her house? Then I believe yes, anxiety and frustration are near these children at all times.These and some other psychological problems can emerge from having to be something that you are not at a very early age. And inner problems are not the only ones. Displaying such a mature look (these girls are five or six years old, yet their faces look like those of at least 16 years old) may attract unwanted public, such as pedophiles. Paying the fee for your childs picture to be posted on a website with heavy traffic is again, in my opinion, not the best choice to be made. Toddlers and Tiar as 3Unfortunately, there have been cases of young pageant participants that have been victims in take out cases, so things are not as simple as one might think. In most cases, mothers are trying to live out their dreams through their children that they couldnt accomplish themselves when they were younger. Playing dress-up with your daughter can be great, but why transform it into a full-time job? I must also mention that these competitions occur on weekends, so these children have no downtime or time to themselves to unwind and just play with their friends and do what children do best, PLAY. So many things can be discussed about children beauty pageants, ranging from ethics, parenthood, mental health, development, competition or interpersonal relationships, but before I end, give your children time to make their own choices and fulfill their own dreams.
