I was talking to a mum today who was with her 8 yr old daughter on the bus. Her daughter had bleached blonde hair at the tender age of 8! It really saddened me that a mum would allow this and even the mum said she did it for her daughter because she wanted her to look nice for her brothers wedding. We got on the conversation of piercings and tattoo's and she said she would also make her daughter have her bellybutton and tongue pierced if someone would do it, because she was 'fat' and needed some self confident. She was a big girl, but definately doesn't need to be made to look like a WOMAN while she's still a child!
