I can’t say that I am thrilled on the name of the condition as it seems to stem from anorexia or perhaps it does not. Anyway, I do not like to see children so fixated with cosmetics
My mum used to dress me and my sister up as young children and take photos and that was her thing, but it never made it into other people’s hands and I never went outside with it. It doesn’t seem in the photos that I was comfortable with it.
It seems a bit that the girl in that article may be being manipulated by an industry and adults. There are laws to govern minors working and I am not sure how this passes. It should come under that law. I think that it is strange if adults are among her subscribers. The mother is a bit putting her daughter out to work. Are some parents wanting a friend or to be a parent.
I know in some countries children do pageants getting dressed up and things. I am cannot say that I am fond of them.
This wasn’t really a problem for me in my childhood and I think that the majority of children seem ok.
Beauty pagents for little girls are quite big in America, personally I find it disgusting that from such a young age these girls are being taught that "good looks" are the way to success. If it were down to me I'd ban them. We panic about child abuse but encourage children to "look good" in a competitive way for the gaze of adults.
I remember watching a program that I think was called Supersize Me, where a bloke went to all these junk food places and asked for small or medium portions and was imediatley offered a super sized version for next to nothing, he put on so much weight his nutritionist partner pulled him off it and put him on a strict calorie controlled vegan diet to get him healthy again.
