[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 460603, member: 1514"] Im sure you all were waiting with baited breath for me to show up on this thread now werent you? I find it highly amusing that so many people who claim to abhor toddler and children's pageants seem to watch this show intently. If you dont want to watch it, change the channel! There are a whole lot of us out here who like these pageants. Some of these kids are very famous now...just look up Eden Wood. As far as that little Pretty Woman costume, it was a cute costume, the child has no pre-conceived notions of what its about and the audience thought she was cute in the skit. And about the Dolly Parton get up, that was adorable too. It was on a 2 year old. There arent a bunch of pedophiles out there in the audiences staring at the kids salivating. When you go to these pageants all you see is parents, grandparents, coaches, and friends. If parents want to spend some of their money and time having fun with their little girls and boys (because yes, they do have boy pageants too), then they have every right to do so. It is no different than spending time and money playing sports, going to camp, teaching them chess, taking acting classes, or any other hobby a child wants to do as they grow up. These are fun events. The kids get to dress up and be a princess for a day. If you dont like it, dont watch it! [/QUOTE]
