should I put my children in t.v/modeling?

Question

I have a 5year old and a 2 year old, I think they are bueatiful and funny. Everyone I know says I should put them in television, even strangers. I don't know if it is to much pressure on them so young? Or if being cute and funny is enough?

if i do decide how does one go about it safely

Answer 1

I was told the same thing about my kids, my first instict was no don't do it, For one their are so many adorable kids out their that yours will just become another flash in the pan, I wanted mine to be just that MINE! I don't really want them on TV these days and look at the Ones that really do make it? What happens when their no longer cute ? they become ridiculous like emanual lewis (webster) or Arnold of different strokes, even the Olsen sisters, and the 2 older siblings from different strokes one is dead and one has been in jail more than once, or how about mukuly Culkin? is he cute anymore? No they become societies Jokes, and tabloid reruns, the few that do "make it" without Drug rehab and Tabloid mania, are Very very few...... I just don't see the pay off at all! Make the right choice and think of thier lives!

Answer 2

I would say no, don't do it - wait on stuff like that until THEY are old enough to make the decision themselves. Look at those Olson twins...they started straight out of the womb and have been in the public eye ever since, have never known a normal childhood. Yes, they're pretty girls and they're now rich and famous, so some may say they're successful, but they supposedly also struggle with eating disorders and whatnot and will never have a shot at a normal life...they are going to be watched forever.

Answer 3

I think you should. Take heed to what people are telling you. If you start your kids out early in modeling, just think about the success that may come along. Then you can have all the bragging rights in the world. Can't nobody tell you nothing because your babies on TV. I know you think it's pressure on them because of their age. But this can be a good thing financially. So give it a try. I'm sure you'll be one proud mama!!

Answer 4

Answer 5

Let them be children, when they get older if they ask you to do it then enroll them.
