Does that not come under child abuse 

Disgusting.....should be a law against it to protect children.......

me and my daughter were reading something similar in a magazine the other day about a mum in this country i think it was....

And would it be cruel to suggest that the kid in the article up there maybe needs all the help she can get.

I think the mother would be better off accepting her child is no stunner and leave it at that.

I read about this last week     I personally have always found these children's pageants a bit sickening.

To find out this woman is actually British but living over there - I'd have thought she'd have had more sense.  In certain states in America it's a rite of passage but we in Europe don't do them and this woman is taking it too far and personally I would consider it child abuse.

FFS! aren't kids allowed to be kids any more   That is totally OTT! 

No, it would be honest. 

Things like this make me SO angry.  I really hate the sexualisation of little children like this; I think it's obscene to cake little girls in makeup and dress them like mini hookers.  Waxing legs at that age is just horrible, but botox goes way beyond anything I've heard of before. 

Unacceptable, that mother needs a reality check

the mom needs a slap round the chops

then botox up her arse so she walks like john inman

I agree Veggie...

Poor little darlin,she is a pretty little girl but obviously her poor face is swollen after those injections.That mum should be punished,severely.

It's like someone said up there Lee, its tantamount to child abuse 

There needs to be a LAW!......not just a Parental Permission law....... 

It is child abuse Sproot,physical and emotional child abuse the rotten barsteward.

It would (maybe) be ok if the child was older and knew her own mind but at 8 years old she's still growing up 

Abuse!!!!

What on earth does the mother see, her own wrinkles when looking at her daughter?  Children DONT have wrinkles! OMG

You hear of mothers pushing their children into things they wanted to do but didnt, but this is taking it to the extreme. Unbelievable.

Just when you think you have heard of everything. Along comes another 'nornna  (short for bananna) in charge of a child. 

Most adults wouldn't risk botox,some do their choice and that's not a problem imo.This is a child,a young child,I doubt very much if the mum were to take her to a salon to have it done the'd oblige,instead she injects her child with botox she obtains from a behind the scenes doctor.

Was thinking that too, the mother must have lied to get it, which makes it worse. Although i dont know US laws, but i watch Judge Judy and she would go mental ! I dont mean that in a trivial way. There should be serious laws against this abuse...

Oh crikey! I didn't know it was 'backstreet' stuff..................that's even worse! 

Oh, I think it's a fabulous idea After all, it's what the child wants and she very obviously knows her own mind: Eight-year-old Britney added: 'I just don't think it's ladylike to have hair on your legs..."
 

You can be told anything at 8 years old and believe it....parents should know better  I am off now x

Wow. All levels of wrong.

Sky....I'm hoping that you noticed the tongue v v firmly wedged in my cheek!

Awful! 

There was a woman on telly recently, who gave her seven year old a voucher for a boob job, for when she was 18. Stupid, stupid woman!

She also does Botox at home, with her step daughters, who were older, but it seems it is legal to buy Botox and DIY.

There was another programme, where the presenter bought some over the internet, and fillers, and had it tested. It was a load of shite and people are buying it and injecting themselves. 

You can have injections for that, Supes! 

I can't stand these American Beauty Pageants for children. IMO, they are just so wrong, in so many ways.

Bottox for children - appalling!

  I read the thread title as 'pregnant mum....' I thought what's the fact that she's pregnant got to do with anything

Erm...down with that sort of thing

That  mum is warped, her daughter's going to grow up just like her and there ain't no injection to cure that.

Sadly no, but so true.

Well said Ted

Pathetic,it should be illegal.

If it isn't, I'm very surprised. The woman wants locking up.

The woman who injected her 8 year-old daughter with Botox for beauty pageants has lost custody. The child didn't look surprised

Hahaha
