OT: Natural Beauty Pageants

Pre-DD, I hated pageants.. I hate how they teach girls to be judged on their outer beauty, to put on a show so people will like them, they give an unattainable goal for looks. But then I got a princess for a daughter. :eyebrows: My advice has since changed. If your DD loves the pageantry and you can manage the benefit with minimal negative impact, I say go for it fwiw - we have not done pageants, but I did do the bippity boppity boutique at Disney. best of luck making your decision
