Baby beauty queens

Looking back to Rachel's lesson today about the changing nature of family life in contemporary Britain and the discussion we had on whether children are becoming the projects of adults - are children being shaped and moulded by society and parents?? Here is a you tube clip i thought was a good example:

I personally don't think its right especially when a 9 year old girl has had plastic surgery and made not to wear her glasses because "they wouldnt look right" it's not acceptable.  Open to thoughts on this??

  1. I totally agree with you Nikki, plastic surgery!! I can not believe a surgeon would do this on a child when it is for comestic reasons, that is so wrong. The glasses she openly admitted that it was more comfortable to wear the glasses than the contacts but mum would not like it.....
    Great blog Nikki x
