Hrm...
It makes them see from a young age, that beauty is everything. Which in fact it isn't.

Just look at this sad case, which was on trading spouses
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQRBaBYoX鈥?/a>What are the negative effects on the children of child beauty pageants?
-Stress and negative self-evaluation which can lead to a number of mental and physical disorders as the children become older.
-easily influenced children developing issues with their appearance and self-esteem.
-Children must also practice in-depth for the interviews and talent portions of beauty contests, learning every word they speak or song.
-Children spend so much time in the world of beauty that they tend to neglect their schoolwork or even their playtime in exchange for an early entrance into an adult world.
-Dealing with the pressures of a pageant life.
-Hiding their true emotions.
-Child abuse through parents and public
Self esteem issues- never thinking you are good or pretty enough. Losing a pageant can be a huge deal and a huge blow to the ego
Eating disorders- most teens in pageants do in fact have eating disorders. Some are very serious
Becoming superficial. Thinking looks are the most important thing in life.. Never looking at anyone's character, and judging people solely on their looks
Over sexualizing children. 10 year olds wear 1 pound of makeup and small dresses. Why please pedophiles? Also, what is this teachingyoung girls? Wear makeup and dress fancy and you get attention
Pageants can become obsessive! Training and practice takes hours a week. This puts homework, chores, and other important things on neglect. Gives the impression that school is not important as long as you win this pageant!
Costs waay to much money! A lot of families actually lose homes and put off important bills in order to pay for the 1000 dollar dresses and personal training for their daughters. This is ridiculous
Pageants are a HORRIBLE idea.
a) It can make the child not learn the value of money. Kids win money in those competitions and for what? looking pretty? It conditions those kids to think they can get by on their looks alone.
b) They value looks to much. It can give them serious complexes when they're older (eating disorders, low self esteem, etc).
excellent question.. there has been studies of traumatic effects on children entered in beauty pageants. they are taught at a young age that beauty is everything and that people will judge them based on appearance.
hope that helpedddd =]
Okay, this was the best i could do:
they get a big head and get all vain
they grow up being really fake
the siblings will always feel bad about themselves
It tears the family apart parents might end up favoring one child
and ...yea
They shouldn't do that to the children at such a young age! The children shouldn't be exposed to all of that. I think it's ridiculous!
