New Boobies On 7-Year-Old’s Wish List

June 9, 2011 No Comments

“The Human Barbie Doll” Sarah Burge is infamous for her plastic surgery addiction and questionable parenting decisions. Her latest “boob job voucher” to 7-year-old daughter, Poppy, takes the cake.

Burge’s daughter desperately wanted three things for her birthday this year: a computer, a holiday, and a boob job voucher. The first two don’t necessarily scream “7-year-old’s birthday” themselves, but a boob job? Come on.

Sarah swears that Poppy desperately wished for the voucher, so she gave into her wishes. Now her 7-year-old can look forward to perfecting her body in nine years when it is legal. Is that something a mother just gives in to? Not in the real world, at least. But in a self-obsessed family like young Poppy’s it is understandably accepted — and promoted — from the start and throughout the children’s lives. This voucher is undeniably just the first of many treatments in Poppy’s future.

Perfection addict Sarah has already allowed daughters Charlotte, 25, Hannah, 17, and step-daughter Jazzy,17, to receive botox treatments. Right. Botox. Because clearly every 20-year-old is already suffering from wrinkles on their faces and terrible signs of aging. If so, I should probably get on it before I turn into an old hag.

I can’t help but feel terrified for today’s youth and the constant flow of perfectionist messages being sent to them. If little girls can’t turn to their own mothers for acceptance of their own, natural beauty, who else is there? Learning from early childhood that perfection is the only way to live, these girls will have no chance to discover who they really are.

No little girl should be made to feel imperfect. They should be enjoying their years of innocence, before boob sizes or wrinkles are even a kernel of a thought.
