HIGH HEELS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN
posted: Dec. 06, 2018.
Participating in beauty pageants has harmful effects on children. Most of the beauty products young girls in beauty pageants use are not designed for children, which can harm their sensitive skin and hair. For example, hair spray, which contains phthalates or plasticizers, can act as hormone disruptors, as Travis Stork of CBS's The Doctors reported.

High heels are not appropriate for children either. According to Dr. Wen-Yin Choi, doctor of podiatric medicine, a board-qualified podiatrist, the unnatural position of their feet can directly cause or contribute to temporary problems like calluses, or more long-term damage to posture.
