I have a 3 year old daughter who has curly hair just like princess. I find it alot more managable to straighten it on a morning as it doesn't look so frizzy this way. My daughter also likes how it looks and regularly asks me to do it.

I also paint my daughters finger and toe nails in the summer so her feet and hands look pretty. She has seen me putting on my make-up, false eyelashes..etc.. and is very curious about it.

I already let her wear lipstick when we go out shopping if she wants and in time when she wants to try my eyelashes she can.

I believe that this just goes to show that my daughter is aware that you need to have good looks to get ahead nowadays and it is easier to get what you want... am i wrong or just investing in my daughters future as a model?

'this just goes to show that my daughter is aware that you need to have good looks to get ahead nowadays'

WTF????? Do you really believe that?

If you do then I feel sorry for you and your daughter.

pagwatch · 01/03/2010 11:37

if this is a joke someone did it a few weeks a go. So [lame] and [tired]

If it isn't then YABU. She can whore herself around if she wants. She should leave her children, in particular Harvey, out of it.

mosschops30 · 01/03/2010 11:38

Oh I just saw this is your first and only post on MN

Is it troll monday??

SpicedGerkin · 01/03/2010 11:38

Is she booked in for her first plastic surgery yet?? If not you're just a wannabe!

wannaBe · 01/03/2010 11:41

been done already.

Go back to your bridge, there's a dear.

ShinyAndNew · 01/03/2010 11:41

Why do you need to have good looks to get ahead? Surely brains, determination, a good personality and many more things are far more important to sucess than the way you look? Even in the case of modelling, personality is just as important as looks.

Why is curly hair not attractive? A decent conditioner would do your daughters hair much better. You are adding to the frizz by damaging the hair. Not to mention damaging her self esteem, by implying that she is not good enough as she is.

Why do you need full make up to be attractive? Natural beauty is far more attractive.

You may or may not be right about KP being a good mother, I don't know I have never met the woman or her children. YABU about what you are doing to your child and the things you are teaching her.

Trip trap.

pagwatch · 01/03/2010 11:42

see.two weeks ago. Old trolling.

at least be imaginative...

Morloth · 01/03/2010 11:44

Originality please. We are getting a very poor standard of trolls these days.

Glitterknickaz · 01/03/2010 11:46

Oh disappointing.
There are so many different facets to her parenting that could have been discussed, the fact she has a SN child....

this is though

loubylou1988 · 01/03/2010 11:47

I feel really bad... i'm new to mumsnet and i'm being serious. I dont think there is anything wrong with giving your daughter a better future.

But I have my answer as I came on here to get genuine advice and you're all clearly not very nice people. I,m only young and am bound to make mistakes.

pagwatch · 01/03/2010 11:50

Being young is not an excuse for looking at your daughter and thinking that the only important thing about her is how she looks, and that that is what should determine her role in life.

[probably not very nice but has daughter who wants to be a gymnast and a Doctor]

4andnotout · 01/03/2010 11:54

I was 19 when I had dd1 yet managed to not fill her head full of drivel.

mosschops30 · 01/03/2010 11:55

you didnt come for advice, so thats bollocks. No point in your OP have you asked for advice.

Off you go, its soooooo tired

ShinyAndNew · 01/03/2010 11:57

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because there are mums who do this in my town and I'm bored.

If you want to give your daughter a better future read to her, count with her, make things with her, cook with her, talk to her. All of those things are far more important than what her hair looks like.
