Okay, point taken. But why are the parents granting so many interviews and seeking out so much publicity.
I could understand if there was one interview and the reporter was an idiot.
But there are many and a web page as well!
And also, I think most posters that have been somewhat critical (but hopefully polite!) have been directing it towards the PARENT, not the CHILD........is anyone picking up this recurring theme!!!!!
Concerning the Olymics, I agree with you there questions. But there are really not that many kids competing. I've seen kids as young as 15, and only one as young as 12 or 13 I think, a swimmer.
But this kid is 8. And those kids are hopefully showing up to compete in their event. I haven't seen any evidence of their parents marketing their children like a brand, although I'm sure we will.
I think it goes without saying that I would also think that is a bad idea.
