Seriously?? Seriously???
Yes, it's another blog about another crazy ass show on TLC. I think there should be a category at the Golden Globes for the show which best exploits children. Because if that was the case then TLC would have a number of entries. They would get 19 kids and counting with the Duggers whose mom's uterus is like a clown car because the babies just keep coming...and coming...and coming! And then there is always Kate and her brood who are on their second show because she hadn't screwed those kids up enough the first go around, so she needs to put them out there again so that when they are all in therapy when they are 20 they will get their moneys worth. Plus, she has to get as many free trips as possible out of this cash cow as well as enough money to continue to get her scanky ass extensions and pay for the McMansion that they live in....all the while the kids are such brats that they get kicked out of school (oops - did I say that out loud?).
And then there is the ultimate in child exploitation....TODDLERS AND TIARAS!!!
Yep, these moms (and in some cases gay dads that aren't out of the closet yet) live out their lifelong dreams through their children by entering them into every cheap ass beauty pageant in the southern hemisphere. All of that of course would not be that big of a deal if they just put these girls in their Easter dresses and let them prance themselves around the stage. But NO - they have to do things like spray tanning....fake teeth....wigs....fake nails...and yes, eyebrow waxing. I'm not sure that I totally understand taking a kid whose body is still forming and saying that they have a unibrow, or their skin is too pale, or God forbid, they lose their BABY teeth - because then we have to get them some false teeth so that the judges will not realize that they are only 7 and are going through the natural changes that a child goes through. So let's make them look like some midget size drag queen jacked up on pixie sticks and dancing around while their parents look like idiots in the crowd making goofy ass noises and hooting and hollering like it's a football game.
The below link is a clip of one of the latest mom's that I am going to for sure nominate for the Mother of the Year award. You will see that she takes her daughter for an eyebrow waxing after the child has had a horrible experience previously. Of course the mother downplays the situation where the salon employee ripped off part of the kids skin.....so she can't understand why her daughter would be fearful to have it done again. So even though she attempts to bribe the child with a bag full of candy (which the child's jaw drops to the floor when she sees it) the child is still hysterical when she realizes that Mommy Dearest is once again putting her through this horrible experience just so she can go into a pageant and possibly walk away with a $5.00 crown and a sash made out of recycled taffeta.

And that's the latest from Rebecca....keeping it real.
