A blessed Good Friday, read.cash!

I thought to still be taking some off today since it is still Holy Week, but I stumbled a short video on Facebook that kind of bother me.

This is one of those topics online that will diversify people, but you know what? I will give my thoughts on this one and I am guessing, I would get some rebuttals here and some may not agree on what I am going to say, so let's begin the discussion.

TWERK IT

So, there's a little girl at 7 years of age dancing and twerking in front a camera wearing an extremely sexy outfit with a very explicit music (with drug and s*x lyrics) in the background that it's excessively unequivocal for her age. The person taking the video is no other than her mom and she was very proud for what her little girl's doing. That is kind of sad and disturbing to me. I'm guessing the type of mom who thinks it's cute doing that is isn't much concerned with appropriateness.

Alright, before you lash out and tell me "stay out of other people's business, it's their life", let me simply express what I felt watching that 30-second video.

I am a mother of 9-year old girl and there are numerous things not innately hostile that I actually wouldn't allow her to do. She can enjoy her hobbies, she can dance if she wants to- that would be awesome (unfortunately she's not into it), but I'll stand up and say "NO" when she goes beyond inappropriate. She's 9. Let a kid be a kid. Pass on the twerking to the grown-up adults, where I can see the value in it.

This kind of dance is a sexualized act. A young little girl should not in any way do it. Some think it is cute, silly and funny. So if you take a highly sexualized activity, and have a little girl do it, it's just cute and silly? I can't think anything of a good opinion as to why a parent should let their kid do it. Yes sure, they can. It's legal because no one is saying it isn't. It doesn't mean they're better off.

Okay, some ladies and women twerk just for fun, dancing, hobby or even as a way of their workouts. That's fine. I have no problem with that. Having said that though, I don't think minors (ages 12 and below) should twerk in public especially broadcasting it on social media. It's totally a different story. I am a little conservative and it makes me feel old expressing what I feel and so be it. I am definitely side eyeing a lot of young little girls nowadays, and looking at my daughter making mental notes. No and again, not in my house.

Feeding The Flame

If someone thinks it's cool to jump off a bridge and told you to follow because it's the trend, would you?

In this time of global pedophile rings, who in her sanity would take care of that sort of fire. You are feeding the flame and that is a clear child-abuse. Again in my point of view, that is not okay. It it never okay.  Parenting to me is a very serious matter. I'll leave it at that. Respect.

Let's show our best to people we truly care about especially to the young kids who rely on us so that they will get the best of us, not what's left of us. Wishing you all a decent Friday, my friends. Xoxo.

One love,

@Bloghound

This is bad and unacceptable. It's even worse when you consider the fact that the scene is being recorded by the mother who I believe should be correcting her. Sometime ago, I saw a video of a little boy, with a bottle of alcoholic drink in his hand. The mother stood beside the boy and was all smiles, encouraging him to drink more. Which is very bad. The mother should be correcting and not encouraging such bad lifestyle. I love the way you correct your 9 year old daughter. She will definitely not depart from it when she grows up.

It seems that the mother of the child herself, is not even aware of her actions. Promoting such acts on her daughter will surely bring them consequences for when the child grows up. She might even think that its a normal thing since her mom lets her do such thing at such a tender age.

There are just so many parenting failures these days. But who am I to dictate what other parents should or shouldn't do. To each his own, they said. But I strongly concur with your view. I certainly think it is not okay for a minor to act in such a way or be exposed to such music/lyrics. I have a 12 years old daughter who is going through puberty and her school friends are all into stuff like that. Her dad and I monitor her WA conversations and if anything like that appears in the chat, we would talk to her about why such convo is not right and encourage her not to respond or just say no. We can't protect them from all the negative worldly things forever but we can teach them where to draw boundaries.

Actually the world is becoming like that, we can't protest on many things that is unliked by us.

All we can report but if that goes trend we can no longer control because those things goes out of our hand. We can make awareness but it depends to them to obey or not. If the society welcomes these things then we can not move toward a bright future with our childrens.

Being religious can bring changes. In our Islam there is many rules for girls and those are to protect them also teaching them the behaviors or how the life can be lead with.

This is absolutely absurd, ridiculous and bizarre. Of a truth, I just think some parents are the ones who end up destroying their children's lives. How on Earth will a mother, (probably I should correct myself, she isn't worthy of being called that), How on Earth will some Lady , (better word) ask a 8 year old girl to start twerking. Imagine. Oh my God. Where exactly is the world heading. Damn. Where are those morals of our forefathers. I dunnot care if anyone's opinion is otherwise, I stand firmly with you on this. One last thing though, I will like to implore you to make sure you train your girl in a good way, cos who knows probably the sets of girls might be her school mates and might teach her other untennable bad morals. You know, peer pressure and all. Happy Friday though.
