[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That she's a child, has the looks and skin and beauty of a child, and doesn't need cosmetic enhancement.[/quote]

This isn't about cosmetic enhancement, or enhancement of any kind. We're not talking Crest Whitestrips or Botox here, but a little simple makeup or polish on the nails. It's just for fun. I think you'll find that most parents who allow it for young children apply it themselves so that what their child is wearing is monitored and the amount is controlled so they don't wind up looking like a clown (yes, CLOWN, not WHORE). This isn't a free-for-all. Don't do it if you don't agree with it. Just don't equate my child to a whore because I see nothing wrong with a little glitter and nail polish from time to time.[/quote]

What is "fun" about needing make-up?  That's what you are teaching her -- that she needs to wear make up in order to be pretty.[/quote]

This isn't about teaching her she needs to wear makeup. It's about letting her have a little fun. It's not like I only tell her how beautiful she is when she wears nail polish or a litle glitter on her eyes. Sheesh! And any woman with a lick of self confidence will tell you the reason she wears makeup is to make herself feel good -- and generally that's not because she has people turning heads, either.[/quote]
