Child Beauty Pageants Should Be Illegal – They Are A Form Of Child Abuse / Video PSA
Child Beauty Pageants Should Be Illegal They Are A Form Of Child Abuse
According to the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment and Adoption Reform Act, child abuse is the physical or mental injury, sexual abuse or exploitation, of a child under circumstances which indicate the childs health or welfare is threatened or harmed.
The danger from sexual predators is only part of the problem. Defenders of child beauty pageants argue that they teach self-confidence and poise. But studies have shown that for every child who may derive some benefit from the competition, hundreds of others suffer damage to their self-esteem and develop warped values about their bodies, which often lead to anorexia or Bulimia nervosa.
William Pinsof, a clinical psychologist and president of the Family Institute at Northwestern University said, ” Being a little Barbie doll says your body has to be a certain way and your hair has to be a certain way. In girls particularly, this can unleash a whole complex of destructive self-experiences that can lead to eating disorders and all kinds of body distortions in terms of body image.” Traveling, stress and competition are everyday aspects of an adult’s life, an average day of an adult requires at least these three aspects to make it to lunch hour, but at the age of eight, stress about body ideals, modeling, and trophies should not come into existence. Since there are no set rules concerning promoters, organizers and participants, pageants are neglected by laws governing them. Organizers want to earn money and are not concerned with the need to protect their participants, and they don’t. According to Phyllis Coleman, a professor of law at Nova Southeastern University, 3,000 pageants attract 250,000 children per year. According to the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment and Adoption Reform Act, child abuse is defined as, “the physical or mental injury, sexual abuse or exploitation of a child under circumstances which indicate the child’s health or welfare is harmed or threatened.” Most stage mothers claim that their child wanted to enter the pageant on her own. Does an eight-year-old girl know what is best for her? In 1996 seven-year-old Jessica Duboff died when her parents allowed her to fly a plane across the country because she liked it. Should parents rely on their children to know what is best for them?
Child abuse is defined as exploitation of a child, are these parents exploiting their child beauties? On a study done by Levey who researched child beauty pageants of the two to six age group for the Harvard University Gazette, she interviewed forty-one pageant mothers who participate in an average of five pageants per year. Levey concluded that mothers of lower-income and education, enter their children in pageants because they want their children to learn the proper skills necessary to move up the social scale. One stage mother said, “I want my child to be aware that there’s going to be somebody better than her. It’s a hard thing to learn, it was for me, and I want her to start early.” Parents with higher incomes and education beyond high school often justify pageants by explaining that competition is essential for their children to become successful. According to Levey, the upper class mothers want their daughters to become lawyers, doctors or to have professional careers.
