This is an article about Isabella Barrett (a former Toddlers and Tiaras star) who is only six years old. She unlike many young girls is a millionaire because of her line of makeup and jewelry line. Her mother fully supports her and her mother is the owner of Glitzy Girl. At the young age of six years old, she has already been on many talk shows and has the confidence of a diva. During an interview her mom Susanna said that her daughter, “drives a mini Cadillac, orders lobster, and loves her shoes and she loves her Michael Kors high heels.” Not only is she exposed to the media, but she is spoiled rotten.
Questions:
Should young girls be exposed to television shows such as Toddlers and Tiaras?
Would you let your daughter be on this kind of show?
What kind of person do you think Isabella will turn out like?
How much influence do these shows have on these young girls?
Are these shows to blame for her bad behavior or "diva" like personality?
Would you blame the parents for putting their daughters on this show and allowing them to act snobbish?
Kelis' Response: As I read this article I was very surprised. I would never let my daughter be on a show like this because of the morals she develops such as having no respect for others and expecting to get everything she wants. I personally do not like shows such as Toddlers and Tiaras because it encourages young girls to cause drama and call attention to themselves. I feel bad for girls like Isabella because when they grow up they will see that the world revolves around them and it will not always be that way.
Kama's Response: Reading this article surprised me as well. No good can come from a six year old millionaire who gets a lot of attention from the media. Hearing the tone of the girl being interviewed revealed her self-centered, diva attitude in development. I'm sure that many parents if not all, would not want their children to develop an arrogant attitude like that. I feel like it's the girl's parents fault and the influence of the media that corrupted this little girls development as a person.
