Pageants in general:

I dated a couple pageant winners from the Ms. America Circuit. They won nice amounts of money, although the actual profit was uncertain given the amount they had to spend on accessories.

It seems that for the winners it might be a nice self esteem booster. To win you have received a certain validation as to your desirability, because lets face it, at its core its a beauty pagent.

Losing might make girls more neurotic lol.

If a girl is into her adolescence, very outgoing, or even a bit of an exhibitionist, and she finds out about a pageant somehow and wants to do it, more power to her.

But when the parents are entering young girls into pageants . . well lets face it . . . they are doing it for their own ego's. Even really young children in the movies, that is parents living through their kids. Boring, but it happens.
