mimi asked: I mean, just a little bit?
People say she’s a bad role model now, but think;
what IS a role model?
a person for children to imitate?
shouldn’t parents, teachers, and peers be role models, not teen celebrities who need role models THEMSELVES?
what kind of kid copies off of a person they don’t even know anyways?
and it’s not like some kid’s going to go
“Well Miley posed for a magazine in a racy way so I think I’ll do it too”
and as for people like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton, who are often said to be ‘bad role models’….
I mean, sure, if you were to see someone drinking and staying out till 4 a.m, and looking like they were having a good time,
it could be persuasive to you, but can’t you think for yourself?
wouldn’t you already KNOW that wasn’t the right thing to do, without needing some ‘role model’ to show you?
and if a child doesn’t know any better than to drink and party, just because someone else was doing it, that’s a failure on the PARENT’S part, not the celebrity’s, right?
