beauty is everything

In beauty pageants it's more than a pretty face and a pretty figure that wins.... it's the whole package. How the person presents themselves. Even a really cute toddler won't win the big crown unless the judges saw something special in them. It gets even more complex as they get older... they have to give the right answers when they are questioned about things. The comedian, Red Skelton once said, "Beauty is only skin deep, but ugliness goes all the way to the bone." I believe that's true. If you are ugly on the inside it shows on the outside... and if you are beautiful on the inside it is also seen on the outside, no matter what your appearance looks like.

I don't think it has to do with the fact that is what she does. A lot of little girls these days say things like that, that aren't even in that type of activity. I do agree but little girls that do pageants don't do questions and answers at all to my knowledge its more of the like the high school level girls and boys that do that. Normally around this girls age of what I've seen they are asked what they want to be when they growing up, there favorite food.

Yes, I understeand. But the media does not have contests to show children with other abilities but spend money on pageants. And that´s because people see that and the show can the sold. It all comes to what are the values in today´s society.

The discussion isn't about pageants it's self just what society is teaching kids these days boys and girls about what looks are important that whats on the inside.

There parents spend the money on the pageants the children doesn't. Like said the pageant isn't the what the discussion is about. Its not just girls that go to pageants or see them its any girl at any age. I've seen 3 and 4 years old care about what they look like. It feeds off from the parents more then the media does. Little girls look up to there mothers and what they see from there parents is what the repeat and even dads do it as well. Where everything has to be beautiful and perfect. I mentioned the girl being in the pageants but it has nothing to do with her mind set but what her parents are feeding. There are adults that girls are even into that sort of thing and looks and your appearance get shoved down there face. I've seen my husband grandmother that is 60 years old talk to his cousin how is our age 23 being told she needs to be skinner that she needs to be more like her little sister that are ranging from the age of 16 down to 4 years old.

I agree.

Of course people just isn't with people its pretty much in everything around us. We all just see it differently from one another. As long as we don't teach the younger generation that beauty on the outside is important then the one on the inside they will be so vail and do those crazy things to make there outside better instead of just being happy with what they having.

I would hope so as well as for my son too.

beauty on the inside is more important then the outside of what we look like. You might have a pretty shell but it doesn't say much about you.

I think all moms want there kids to eat veggies. I know I get happy when my 15 month old eats hers but then I have to force her to eat some meat as well since half of the time veggies is all she wants. I don't trick my kids into doing anything. I can't force my daughter to eat something she doesn't want or like. Actually the girl came in second place. She got a title unlike some other kids that didn't but some other really vain little girl that likes to compete against her mother won. She was the same age as the girl that got second. She won money and a puppy.

It's not just here but plenty of other little girls out there that feel the same way.

I can agree with that beauty on the outside can make a person ugly on the inside depending on how they look at things.

I don't think beauty is something at all. It's there weather we see it or not. Some people just only look at the surface and not what is under it and some beauty you can only see what you look past something that might now be as beautiful.

I don't think then when people think that beauty is everything doesn't mean they don't know the difference between good and bad. I just think they have been taught that only looks get you far in life and not hard working and working for the things you need in your life.

Okay.

I agree with that the beauty on the inside will come out to the outside and it'll be since in many ways. I think everyone has one thing about them weather they look beautiful or not to others that is beautiful on the outside as well as on the inside of course just because you look beautiful doesn't make you beautiful you still need to work hard and do things for yourself and not just let people give it to you.

I have to disagree with the last statement not all guys will find all women beautiful weather they look it on the outside or not. Each men like each women like different beauty when it comes to love and finding a mate. But never judge a book by it's cover.

Her parents should have teach her that but sadly right now they are not teaching her that part of life that its the inside is more important then that outside of because looks are not everything.

well the key word above that will explain it all is pageant which explains a lot of things, because a lot of girls and boys in pageants feel that looks are everything in life and a lot of the parents are the same way.

Yep the inside is more important then our outside. Its just the shell nothing more.
