I disapprove. Mainly this is because from what I've seen (a good number of my younger cousins were in the pageant circuit), it's not about the kids enjoying themselves or anything like that, it's about the parents being competitive. Also, anything that sexualizes a child is not okay in my book, and a lot of those pageant competitions go beyond just looking cute or pretty. Young girls being judged on how they look in bikinis with dyed hair, spray tans and full make-up is NOT cool!
What do you think of child beauty pageants?
