	I do agree with you Jax but then because of my age, people say.... you are old fashioned. Children need to be children for as long as they can. after all it is a long hard 'adulthood'. Deanna X

	Are children being allowed to grow up to soon these days? I feel through my own personal experiences that some people not only allow but encourage children to grow up too soon. I was horrified to find out a few days ago that Boo who is 8 was bought real make up and hair straightners by her dad and his girlfriend. I feel at 8 years old she is way too young for worrying about her looks in this way play hairdressers with her friends yes but not bought products to doll herself up for when they go on days out which I was told. When I tackled him about this I was told most the kids these days have them and she wanted to be like her friends. Whats wrong with society these days that children are made to grow up before their time? Whats your thoughts on this? Jax xx
