i remember BEGGING my mom to let me be in pageants when i was younger. she always refused. i was angry at her then, but honestly huge thanks to her bc jesus christ
i was the same way! my best friend who i danced with did pageants and i wanted to do them so badly but my mom didn’t let me (she was a basketball player so go figure) thank god.
Actually, it looks like the horse is eating a man alive, and all you can see is his leg poking out. Sorry to make it look worse, but that was MY thought. LOL XD XD
And it's so obvious that half the time even when these poor kids say they "want" to do this, it's more so that they're saying they want to because they know that's what their parents want to hear...They don't really want to; they wanna do normal kid stuff. But they know their moms will give them a hard time for saying no.
My cousin actually did pageants she was really good until her stepfather made her stop she actually liked it and then mother never forced her she was very beautiful and won many awards I think she would still be doing it now if her stepfather didn't make her stop
Lemme tell you why i think most pageant mothers should not have rights over their children. 9:06 Take this horrible woman for example. Probably since her daughter was born, she forced her into this diva lifestyle and basically convinced her child "life is about winning." This is not a healthy mindset for a child because they start thinking every other kid, even adults are their rivals, they become corrupted and vain. And how old is she?? 4?? 5?? She went missing for an HOUR and the only words her mother could muster is "I was scared she was going to miss her show". EXCUSE ME?? This triggers me so much because its like she thinks of her daughter as an object. Children are not OBJECTS. They are real, small human beings with emotions, emotions that they don't know how to control and pageant moms do such a bad job at raising them and making sure they mature with age. When you get pregnant and become a mother, it is your JOB to raise your child in a safe environment where they can learn & grow properly. The fact that moms force their kids to basically strut around in tight fitting clothes with layers of makeup on their face for MONEY is disgusting and unhealthy.
In addition the only reason this child went missing is to reach out to her grandmother and tell her how miserable and unhappy she is with her mother and this lifestyle. She went missing for an hour because she felt she needed to sneak away to reach out for help to get out of this abuse. AND ALL HER MOTHER CAN CARR ABOUT IS HOW SHE RISKED HER PAGENT CAREER?? And then when she came back the child looked legitimately scared to return back to the mother and clung to her gran instead. AND HER FREAKING MOTHER GOT ANGRY AT HER FOR THAT! As somebody who’s come from a household that has a parent like this (not the pageant stuff but the parent’s mindset) I can say there is nothing more painful than expressing discomfort in how you are treated and being made to feel like it’s misbehaving to stand up for yourself. It is awful and can damage you. Many pageant mums have this mindset and it is SO harmful I can’t even.
Poor horse... Stuck like that, perpetually choking on a branch. I love how they captured the fear in the horses eyes. They say "Oh dear lord will this ever end?!"
When I was like 2, my mom entered me in a pageant and although I won 2nd place, I found myself asking how in the hell is a 2 year old going to be able to say they want to be in one let alone understand what it is and why they’re being judged on stage by a bunch of strangers. It’s toxic and none of these kids actually understand what they’re doing. They’re being forced whether they say it or not and these parents are doing it for self gain all while sacrificing their daughters happiness. These girls can’t even consent as they don’t even know what that word means. Pageants are toxic and my daughters will not be put in one🤷🏼♀️
Child: *Disappears.* Normal parent's reaction: "OH MY GOD, MY CHILD IS MISSING, SHE'S PROBABLY KIDNAPPED, AND IN DANGER, I MUST FIND HER IMMEDIATELY." Pageant parent's reaction: "OH MY GOD, MY CHILD IS MISSING, SHE IS GOING TO MISS HER PAGEANT, THAT MEANS I'M NOT GETTING *MY* REWARD, I MUST FIND HER IMMEDIATELY."
She’s literally wearing heels…man I wish I could wear heels and trot around on stage. When I was eight I was the one kid who did math a lot and drew I actually hated pageants and I am glad I wasn’t forced to do them. At the time my mom wanted me to do them though but luckily she gave me a choice.
i was the wild child i somehow caught a pigeon whan i was this girls age i was at a birthday party my mom was so done she just said to put it outside i only did 1 school pagent ( i think i came 3rd) never did it again ( i wore a cute knee legnth dress and tights that my mom made IT HAD A CARTOON MOUSE IN THE POCKET 😄 i still have it)
Pageants definitely encouraged my eating disorder when I was younger. I actually relapsed in college because I made homecoming court and I couldn’t afford a new dress. I forced myself to lose enough weight to fit into my dress from 8th grade. 5’6 and 90 lbs isn’t a good look. 😞 Thankfully I went to residential treatment to get the help i needed and my family didn’t let me enter any more pageants throughout college.

Lacie’s grandma is more of a mother to her than her biological mother. When she was trying to calm her down and get her to cooperate with the situation, Lacie’s mom comes up cursing at her. “I am NOT happy right now”. Not even the least bit concerned about her daughter’s wellbeing. It seems her grandma knows more about calming her down than her own mom does. “She wanted to talk to me outside about asking her mom to get off her case, which she does a lot”. That’s devastating.
Aiyesha Badesha Unfortunately. I’m from Georgia so it’s very common here. I’m 22, and remember doing one benefit pageant at age 8. The proceeds were going to an Atlanta pediatric ward to help treatment of kids with long term effects of Cerebellar Ataxia. This was something that hit very close to home, as I was treated at the same hospital for the same disorder at age 2 and they saved my life. I was more than happy to do the pageant and give back to them because it was serious. Anyone could enter the pageant, whether it being first timers or seasoned competitors. The seasoned competitors’ moms didn’t even give a damn about the benefit, as I heard MANY of them back stage saying they only cared about their daughter getting the crown. It was disgusting. You could see on their daughters’ faces they actually cared about helping kids their age with motor skill disorders that prevented them from doing everyday things. They didn’t care about the crown. One mom came up to me and said I shouldn’t be competing because her daughter was prettier and skinnier than me. Her daughter was mortified and apologized. She ended up winning, and after hearing that I was one of the kids who happened to be saved from this disorder, stopped me as I was walking out the door with my “best smile” award and crown. Took mine off my head, and placed her winning one on my head and we took pictures together. She was so sweet. She didn’t have to do that, but knew this pageant had a deeper meaning for me. She didn’t deserve the lecture she got from her mother after, but kept smiling my way to let me know she wasn’t mad with her actions. I still have the photos. I still suffer with minor issues due to the disorder, like vision issues and sometimes motor skill malfunctions. But I’m one of the lucky ones. Every time I think about pageant videos of kids, I think back to her and hope maybe someday they grow to be like her, despite their parents’ malicious intent to treat them as trophies rather than little girls.
Her: where’s my child About an hour later Her again : I was scared she was going to miss her turn on stage Me: lady ,you serious right now Her once again : I’m not happy right now Me again : smacks my hand on my head
Omg, not only did this mother show that she prioritizes Lacy’s beauty score and not her safety or possible abduction . Notice how Lacy was only missing because she wanted to talk to her grandma about how her mom is always mad at her, and how she’s unhappy. She asked her grandma for help. And when the grandma told her to give her mom a hug, she said no and refused to let go. That alone shows so much about the parent child relationship. I’m mad 😡
The child: *goes missing* Me (a total stranger): omg she could have been kidnapped or fallen and hurt herself! Her MOTHER: im afraid that she could miss her chance on stage...
@@spingingleblorp3996 honestly that's kinda a red flag for some form of parental neglect not physical but definitely emotional imagine her going back and watching that episode when she's older and realizing her mom has been using her to make money on pagents like that fucks a kid up
She shouldn't have smiled. She should have done the worst she possibly could and then disappoint and anger her mother by losing. Then when she argues she could be like "I went missing for an hour cause of you and all you were scared about was me missing the show. Be grateful I even went up on stage" then she should tell everyone she sees that her mother doesn't care about her safety. Only the show
Notice how the kid is acting, she’s screaming, being disrespectful, etc. My step brother acts similar, it’s the parents fault for not parenting right and disciplining correctly. Notice when she was screaming, all her mother said was “that’s so loud” no discipline
“ *I bribe my child with chocolate* “ The daughter a couple minutes later.. “ *when I eat chocolate, I feel like I’m in chocolate heaven* “ Ok that *needs* to stop
1:53 “living in game of thrones.” Considering she’s also basically putting her daughter on display........ And in game of thrones usually when a female is ‘on display’ she’s a.... yeah Worlds best mum everybody.
I mean if Satan has to show up and possess a child in order stop those crazy babymakingguts then it's fine by me, one free possession pass on whoever those kids are. Stop the pageant parents.
when the daughter started screaming I cringed- I couldn't even imagine having a kid that acted like that 😂 I would go nuts ( plus what makes it worse is that the daughter realizes how she's acting but continues to do it)
I think it was faked for the show. She didn't seem genuine and her mother's reactions didn't seem genuine. It was just something for the camera, asked for by the camera crew/directors.
Imagine having a mother forcing you to participate in pageants instead of letting you live out your childhood like a child, I would throw a fit too lol.
Mum: “I was scared that Lacie was going to miss her chance on the stage.” Me: 🤦🏻♂️ really. Your child has gone missing. You should be panicking for her life instead of her CHANCE ON THE STAGE. If I were you I would be having a panic attack. And obviously your not concerned that she could have been taken into a strangers van.
She isn’t even slightly worried that her child could be dead Most parents: omg I am so glad I found you Her mom: you nearly missed your time to go on stage you ungrateful girl
Child beauty pageants are nothing more than an outdated southern tradition that are sadly just as popular and traditional still today. I’m from California and I lived in Texas, and my Texan husband said it’s so normal there that no one thinks it’s weird or oversexualizing children.
I was thinking this exactly. She should have been more worried than she was missing or *taken* (though she was fine) rather than not getting to perform.
I honestly think and believe that child pageants should be illegal under a certain age. 16 or 18. Prefferebly 18 so a parent cannot force a their child to perform.
As a person that had a friendship with someone who was in the pageant game for years!! It just feeds their ego and they think theyre better than everyone cuz they have all these medals and they think they look better with the clothes they wear, cuz thats all that matters in pageants
There was a transgender girl at my old school who actaully attempted suicide over 6 times because in his head he was a boy but his mom continuously forced him to dress like a girl and compete in beauty pageants which was absolutely awful
Oh God, when the "mom" said that she was worried that her little girl was going to miss the show when she was missing made me boil inside! Jesus! Daz said it perfectly when he brought up kidnapping and being chloroformed or something. I mean these pageants are crap and they make me so angry and worried about these girl's futures.
i remember BEGGING my mom to let me be in pageants when i was younger. she always refused. i was angry at her then, but honestly huge thanks to her bc jesus christ
You were blessed with that.
Your mum is amazing
i was the same way! my best friend who i danced with did pageants and i wanted to do them so badly but my mom didn’t let me (she was a basketball player so go figure) thank god.

It seems her grandma knows more about calming her down than her own mom does. “She wanted to talk to me outside about asking her mom to get off her case, which she does a lot”. That’s devastating.
Thats wonderful WOW
It really is it's a good thing she has a good Grandma tho
Well that’s how pageants go round America. Idek if it’s even legal here to pageant...
Aiyesha Badesha Unfortunately. I’m from Georgia so it’s very common here. I’m 22, and remember doing one benefit pageant at age 8. The proceeds were going to an Atlanta pediatric ward to help treatment of kids with long term effects of Cerebellar Ataxia. This was something that hit very close to home, as I was treated at the same hospital for the same disorder at age 2 and they saved my life. I was more than happy to do the pageant and give back to them because it was serious. Anyone could enter the pageant, whether it being first timers or seasoned competitors. The seasoned competitors’ moms didn’t even give a damn about the benefit, as I heard MANY of them back stage saying they only cared about their daughter getting the crown. It was disgusting. You could see on their daughters’ faces they actually cared about helping kids their age with motor skill disorders that prevented them from doing everyday things. They didn’t care about the crown. One mom came up to me and said I shouldn’t be competing because her daughter was prettier and skinnier than me. Her daughter was mortified and apologized. She ended up winning, and after hearing that I was one of the kids who happened to be saved from this disorder, stopped me as I was walking out the door with my “best smile” award and crown. Took mine off my head, and placed her winning one on my head and we took pictures together. She was so sweet. She didn’t have to do that, but knew this pageant had a deeper meaning for me. She didn’t deserve the lecture she got from her mother after, but kept smiling my way to let me know she wasn’t mad with her actions. I still have the photos. I still suffer with minor issues due to the disorder, like vision issues and sometimes motor skill malfunctions. But I’m one of the lucky ones. Every time I think about pageant videos of kids, I think back to her and hope maybe someday they grow to be like her, despite their parents’ malicious intent to treat them as trophies rather than little girls.
Her: where’s my child
About an hour later
Her again : I was scared she was going to miss her turn on stage
Me: lady ,you serious right now
Her once again : I’m not happy right now
Me again : smacks my hand on my head
Omg, not only did this mother show that she prioritizes Lacy’s beauty score and not her safety or possible abduction . Notice how Lacy was only missing because she wanted to talk to her grandma about how her mom is always mad at her, and how she’s unhappy. She asked her grandma for help. And when the grandma told her to give her mom a hug, she said no and refused to let go. That alone shows so much about the parent child relationship. I’m mad 😡
I am as well, pageants are creepy af and she’s so young… that’s how you know that you’ve failed as a parent..
Same as well

@@spingingleblorp3996 honestly that's kinda a red flag for some form of parental neglect not physical but definitely emotional imagine her going back and watching that episode when she's older and realizing her mom has been using her to make money on pagents like that fucks a kid up
Geez, these parents, are very dumb
Kidnapper I have chocolate
The mom: hurry up you have your stage time in 2 minutes
9:56
the sudden switch of her facial expression for the judges is heartbreaking.
The sad truth is alot of people do that on a daily basis but I'm with you it hurt me to see that
Lol
She shouldn't have smiled. She should have done the worst she possibly could and then disappoint and anger her mother by losing. Then when she argues she could be like "I went missing for an hour cause of you and all you were scared about was me missing the show. Be grateful I even went up on stage" then she should tell everyone she sees that her mother doesn't care about her safety. Only the show
''her future plans are to become miss America and end this universe'' 11:02
She said “and then Miss Universe”
"Calm down on all the pink cause you're giving me cataracts" 😂😂
she doesn’t care about her child being missing she just cares about her missing her pageant

I think it was faked for the show. She didn't seem genuine and her mother's reactions didn't seem genuine. It was just something for the camera, asked for by the camera crew/directors.
Imagine having a mother forcing you to participate in pageants instead of letting you live out your childhood like a child, I would throw a fit too lol.

Lacy: ok then
Child beauty pageants are nothing more than an outdated southern tradition that are sadly just as popular and traditional still today. I’m from California and I lived in Texas, and my Texan husband said it’s so normal there that no one thinks it’s weird or oversexualizing children.

Its texas tho
Yeah, but Texas is pretty much a hillbilly state.

@@CuteFishCakes lol
I was thinking this exactly.
She should have been more worried than she was missing or *taken* (though she was fine) rather than not getting to perform.
I honestly think and believe that child pageants should be illegal under a certain age. 16 or 18. Prefferebly 18 so a parent cannot force a their child to perform.
But where would the pedophiles go when they need to yank themselves? Jk, I totally agree.
My thoughts exactly.
but then it’s not child pageants it’s teen/adult pageants
@@mia-oi8yt Exactly....
As a person that had a friendship with someone who was in the pageant game for years!! It just feeds their ego and they think theyre better than everyone cuz they have all these medals and they think they look better with the clothes they wear, cuz thats all that matters in pageants
