i am so surprised that my brother and sister in law did not put their only child, a daughter, in these pageants when she was younger. she participated in dance and gymnastics, and when recital time rolled around, the owner of the dance/gymnastics school had the kids sell ads in the recital program and various prizes and trophies were awarded based on the $ amount of ads sold. my brother and sil bragged every year that my niece had "sold" the most ads and won the biggest trophy, when in reality(something their lives were lacking at the time) they had sold the ads for their daughter and she got some tacky, big a** trophy. same mentality as the pageant parents.
