    It reminds me of child pageants here in the USA. Parents need to stop pushing their dreams on their children. :(

    • @creativelychandra
      @creativelychandra 8 років тому +25

      dellaslove that's great that your friends had a good outcome but it doesn't change the fact that 90% of the kids in those pageants were most likely forced into them by their parents. kids that age usually don't know what they want so they just go with the flow. doesn't make it right. same w/ these groups.

    • @aster9547
      @aster9547 8 років тому +3

      yknow.. you never know if the kids like it or not; if they're forcing it on their children or not. sure, there are a lot of tv shows that show parents forcing their children to participate in pageants and things, but w/out evidence for this instance, you can't really put assumptions out there.

  • @usagifelton
    @usagifelton 8 років тому +33

    When I was growing up, in the US, we had several "boy groups" including The Boys (average age of about 10/15 ) and ABC (Another Bad Creation) (average age of about 9/12) they were quite popular with kids. I saw a documentary with ABC members once they were adults where they talked about how cool it was to be famous but how they didn't understand when the record label lost interest. When the fans disappeared and all the people they'd thought "cared" about them were suddenly gone, now that sales had slowed and how hard it was once the fever had died. It is going to be very hard for these small children once the "trend" is passed, to understand the rejection of their label and the public. It's a greedy manager and selfish parents that are the cause and I can only hope that they have a good support system for when they're no longer "in", because trends don't last long.

'don't tell them what to do and not to do, it's their life, their body they can choose what to wear and what to do with it' 'let them live their dreams' 'you're not their parents, you have no say in it' etc. BUT THANKFULLY they mostly agree with you guys! thumbs up!

    This definitely is happening in America, maybe not as rigid, but definitely similar. There are plenty of five year olds being groomed through hours and hours of dance classes and acting classes and voice classes and modeling jobs in order to be famous in their later years. Beauty pageants included. An example of this would be Dance Moms, although those girls don't train as hard as a lot of others, their childhoods were taken away for reality TV.

    • @dominique3666
      @dominique3666 8 років тому

      I understand where you are coming from with the Dance Moms thing, but the children on dance moms chose their own careers. They want to be dancers professionally and their parents are just trying to help them achieve that also the show started when most of the girls were about eight or nine years old so the knew what they wanted.

    • @locomocobananasuper
      @locomocobananasuper 8 років тому +2

      I wouldn't say Dance Moms was all that bad when it started, but because of it many of the girls now have extremely bad anxiety disorders, depression, etc. Plus, all of them started dancing around age 1-2. Dance was all they know, of course they said it was what they wanted to be at age 9.

    The thing I'm scared about is the fact that a lot of people look up to kpop stars and want to be them/look like them. That's why there is a lot of plastic surgery in South Korea... But now that girls as young as 5 are becoming popular and are wearing tons of makeup, is it going to become desirable as a fashion trend for girls that young to wear makeup like an adult??? Media is a very powerful thing and beauty trends like this can actually be very harmful, especially in strict and fashion forward societies like South Korea and other parts of Asia...

    @acmulhern 8 років тому +15

    As far as I know it is legal to capitalise off of children in the US. That was the whole issue with mackauley culkin. But there's pretty strict laws about how many hours a child can work in these industries. The only country I know of that really protects kids is France. Any money made by a celebrity child in France is put in a locked bank account that the child can only touch once they reach the age of 18, and nobody can just use it for themselves when the child is young and doesn't know any better. In most other countries it's the parents that control the money until the child is old enough, which can sometimes lead to abuse unfortunately.

      In America, the money earned by the child is Also put into trust fund bank accounts.Attorneys decide how much of the child's pay can be used by the parents ,for the child's monthly, yearly expenses.Child labor laws are in place to protect child actors, private tutors, teachers teach them school on set if its needed,and they can only work so many hours a day.....

    This makes me think a lot of Child Pageants in the US. I don't know how big they /still/ are, but look at little girls like Shirley Temple, or look up pictures of Jonbenet Ramsey (the little girl taught to give alluring looks). I don't know about having full dance troupes, but this has happened in the US, and many of these little girls were dressed up the same at the time period, wearing full makeup, clothing similar to what adult women might wear (generally of the "classy" variety) and were doing full dance routines, some times with subtle sexualized hints. And it's the same with those beauty Pageants. The girls have to practice religiously, they are pretty much treated like the adult women are that do the same thing. And their mothers can get scary...

    Although this discussion is completely valid, the subject is not the worst thing I've ever heard done to little girls. For example: sex-selective abortion, female genital mutilation, being forced to marry adults, and even foot-binding to name a few atrocities.
    I hope, if this cannot be stopped, that through the mistreatment of these children some sort of "platform" is created for them to be able to speak out as adults against whatever wrongs done to them in their industry. I also go so far as to hope that this will may somehow further women's rights and change the view of women in China. I wish the girls the good luck and better opportunites.

    I honestly don't think it's that weird. It's not like 5 year olds singing and dancing would entertain adults, but they would definitely entertain /other/ 5 year olds. It's kids entertaining other kids. And their dance moves aren't sexy. At all. And if you think that they are then you are the one who has a problem here. I can see this being popular on pre-k tv in China or something, I don't understand how that's so weird.

      I agree..sexy was the last thing on my mind. I actually thought their dancing was cute. my only worry is that it might be hard on them and I can imagine a 5 year old choosing to do this so they are being forced to do this by either their parents or managers. I wish we'd just let kids be kids these days and not force something on them until they're of the age to choose for themselves. and all of this does expose them to potential sexual abuse cuz there are sick people out there.

      Hannah Mckay True, but it doesn't mean they're forced to do this. Kids are in dance classes all the time by choice. Don't get me wrong, I'm SURE there are definitely kids that are forced to do this by their parents, but there's no need to assume all of them are.

      Milica Vukmir So because there are pedophiles out there, we must force children to dress like the Amish, right? I guess we should never take them to the beach or pool because we don't want pedophiles looking at their bathing suits, right? And when it's hot out, too bad they must wear pants and not shorts because a pedophile might see their legs, right? While we're at it, let's just keep all children locked in their room 24/7 just in case!

    Even with America's got Talent or The Voice, when I see a little girl, dancing, wearing a little makeup I do not think it's bad. It's cute and it has a "wow" factor to it that makes me feel okay by watching this. But THIS is wrong on so many levels. The adult makeup, photoshop, they look much older than 5 in thoe pictures and that is purely to sexualize the girls. Ugh, makes me a little sick to imagine what type of audience they draw in.

  • @Tomutionmyha

    • @1063-x6b
      @1063-x6b 8 років тому +4

      kpop train kids just as young. the average debut age is 14, Girls Generation at the time of debut all of them bar 1 was 18. GP Basic debuted with a 12 year old member until the broadcasting board or something put their foot down. She was taken of screen but was still performing outside. These girls were all dressed in skimpy clothes and selling sex overtly. Same deal for the boys. Conclusion, it is correct to compare the two.

    • @Tomutionmyha
      @Tomutionmyha 8 років тому +1

      +10631618 10631618 You can "compare" the industries but these children are Chinese not Korean, to say it's the same is not correct! And 12 is not 5, plus you say they stopped the 12 year old. Nobody is stopping these babies. Yes, every place has people doing wrong. In America we have stupid people sexualizing 5 year olds in kid's pageants. Again put the blame where it belongs for each case.

    • @1063-x6b
      @1063-x6b 8 років тому +1

      I think we're talking at cross purposes here. I wasn't absolving CPOP but don't see why we can't do a comparison and say they are essentially the same. Both are child exploitation. Just because one group is 5 yr and performing, and another is not performing, or is performing at 12 yr, it does not make it any less a child exploitation case. Are you saying that the case is less significant because the 12 yr old is older? Anyway, I won't comment anymore.

    I am not shocked since I 've known 7princess KPOP group of kids age 6-11 and when they are 12 it is their last year before they must graduate from the band. If you have not heard, look them up. They do seem to have a lot of fun and I think they do great, they make children song, cute princessy, and it is adorable and purely child-friendly for kids. Age 12 (High school, puberty) they release them and I think it is wonderful how they did, but I have since years ago not re-studied what they truly are doing and whatnot if I am missing out on something. ^^ Might look up soon

    • @CheshireCat478
      @CheshireCat478 8 років тому

      It's not really just the exploitation though. Making kids famous at a young age makes them grow up fast and have no room for a regular childhood. That and they already have to be concerned with being perfect 24/7. Plus it's possible that their parents are forcing them to do this. At any rate, their lives are probably going to be 10x more stressful than the average 5 year Olds life, and it probably won't end as they get older

  • @SonicaLuda
    @SonicaLuda 8 років тому +2

    I love it when you guys bring up issues like these. Some people think is "cute" to oversexualize a child by making them look like grown women. But in reality, they are taking their childhood away and opening them up to creeps that are sick and want to see more of them.

  • @mizzymsp
    @mizzymsp 8 років тому +7

    I don't find that it's sexualising them tbh. They're not dressing with loads of skin exposed, or doing sexy dance moves. All I find troubling is that they're losing their childhood and they're missing out on education
    I also don't like the idea of how they train idols as well. To me they seem sort of extreme. Having little kids to do this is just ridiculous when they could just spend their life having fun at this stage instead of focusing on a career.

    As a Chinese, I didn't know anything about this group until watching this video. So cannot say how popular this kids group would be. I also agree with the concerns you expressed in the video. I believe you guys aren't the only ones who wanna criticize kids getting involved in the entertaining industry at young ages, especially when the industry wanna sexualize them. I support criticism b/c that is how people exchange different ideas from different perspectives. However when continuing watching, I cannot help but notice there are so many stereotypes brought up in the video. It got to a place where I was wondering whether the criticism was only for the issue or just for China itself. I believe the purpose of the video is for raising more awareness from people about this issue, not for completely denying a country. So if I was right about the reason of making the video, I would think about how to make my own purpose more clearly.

    I was in pre-school when my parents put me into dance classes. I don't see much difference between that and this. As a child I loved it. The highlight was the costumes and putting on the performance at the big venue every year. I did it until I was 12 and it was a great way to exercise, to be taught how to appreciate the way I look, etc.
    If you don't want it to be a trend, don't watch it. If nobody watches it won't make money and it won't be a trend. Your "outrage" is publicity. You aren't doctors, how do you know it's "harmful"?

      Crop-tops and little shorts--honestly some of these outfits are a lot more clothing than the leotards and tutu's I wore as a kid. I remember how cold it sometimes was going out in winter wearing skin-tight clothing but it's acceptable because it's not associated with popular music? I don't know it just seems very hypocritical of us to say "this music is okay for kids to dance to" but this other stuff isn't. It just seems the same to me. Maybe the people who look at these KIDS and see something sexual are the ones with problems.
