Do you think Miley calling parents 'selfish' is correct?

Miley's age is very critical. 17 years. And she is having huge glory,money,fame.... At this age it is very difficult for some one to swallow this huge success and digest it and become used to it. If some further scandals from is get reveal, I will surly not surprised. Or some one else do such blunder than also I will not surprised. I am not justifying her, what she had done is absolutely wrong but the media is giving air to the fire. Okey okey let's stop about digging some ones did!! Let's discuss in +ve tone. Now media must show the reactions also publicly and as specially to Miley also that the public is not liking her statement. So she will learns a lesson and will think 100 times before delivering such thing.

I think she has a very valid point. Parents can't allow their kids to adopt such manufactured role models and then complain about the influence they might have on their kids. I don't like the whole Hannah Montana thing because I think it is a very bad thing for kids to aspire to but it IS the responsibility of the parents to decide what their kids are exposed to. Unfortunately most of them think the TV is a babysitter and assume that if something is marketed as a kids show that it is going to be good/wholesome and safe - rather than seing that it is selling merchandise and "lifestyle" and exists to make money.

Miss Cyrus shouldn't be one to talk. As stated in the article she is a role model for young girls, though I for one don't see why. From what I've noticed the older she gets the more annoying she becomes. However, the fact remains that there are girls that look up to her. Which means that she should be setting a good example and not be flaunting her stuff for all to see...especially with her being a kid herself. I wouldn't be surprised if her father, Billy Ray, gets a lot of flack about this latest little stunt she's pulling. Because parents like him wouldn't allow daughters like her to act the way she does, at least not at her age anyway. She's a spoiled little rich girl and if it wasn't for her daddy she wouldn't be famous to begin with, no matter what he says. And if anyone is selfish it is her, not the parents that are upset over this. This girl needs to start using the brains God gave her. Either that or she needs some discipline in her life because she obviously needs it. Maybe then she'll finally become a role model that parents and kids can be proud of. Happy mylotting!

I think she's a teenager, and they often say immature things. But as far as parents, where the heck were her parents when those pictures were taken?

No, I don't think the parents are being selfish at all because children need good role models they can look up to. The problem is, most of these movie stars and singers are not good role models. They do so many things that they shouldn't. I always liked Miley Cyrus, myself, and I was shocked when I read this and watched the video about the dancing. I didn't think she would ever do anything like this! I must admit that I didn't pick very good role models when I was younger, either. I remember the photo shoots for Vanity Fair but I thought she was sorry for that and I had forgiven her. Now, I don't know what to think. I've always been a big fan of her daddy's, though. I've often wondered how her parents felt about the Vanity Fair shoots. As a matter of fact, I used to be in Billy Ray Cyrus's fan club and I went to the fan club picnic in 2000. I got to meet Billy Ray and Miley there! Miley was just 7 years old at the time and I thought she was so cute! I remember when she was born, too. You just never know how these kids are going to turn out, though! Kathy.
