Sure, parents need to monitor their children and such, but little girls watch these women with open eyes and they have big dreams. These dreams of our little girls may pass in time, but it really is not too hard to find a lovely young woman to crown with a clean background for girls to look up to. It is sad that it is all about controversy, press, and money. At some point we really have to care about our little girls who just don't understand it all.

Unfortunately I'm not sure you can find many girls around that age who haven't had pictures taken of them drinking or dancing. This is what our world is now.
