Saw this story on the news this morning:
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504083_162-57425927-504083/patricia-krentcil-new-jersey-mother-accused-of-putting-her-6-year-old-girl-in-tanning-bed/

What blew me away wasn't so much what she did, but how old she is!

Guess?

    She should be hit in the head with a tack hammer.

    And that is why I stay far away from tanning beds and wear sunscreen.

    Willy Wonka called....he is missing an oompa loompa..oh wait! We found her!

    On a side note though, what a useless a*s.

    After reading the story, I think they are going to have hard time proving this case. They should drop the charges.

    Has she not looked in the mirror? And what tanning salon actually would sell her more tanning time? Yuck.

    I am almost never a fan of interfering with the family dynamic, but this is sure cause to reconsider. If she really put her child in a tanning booth, she needs some guidance.

    The show "Its always Sunny in Philadelphia" had a plot like this. They take a baby because it looks so pale.

    I just saw her on the news this morning! Why would she continue to go tanning? She is way too tan already! :P

    I wonder who is paying for all that tanning time? Taxpayers maybe?
  • Oh my goodness :o .

    After seeing the little girl, who is fair and red hair, who doesnt even look tan nor sunburned. I am sure they will drop this. I think that the only reason this message went viral is due to what mum looks like. I could be wrong tho.

    Eww... has her little red button popped yet because I think she is done!! I have a 5 year old and I could never even imagine putting her in a tanning bed...yikes! But she is a ginger and has mad freckles with porcelain skin :) I think we should buy stock in SPF 100!

    Seriously, that has got to be paint. Maybe she's going to a "Who Can Come in the Most Offensive Costume?" party in blackface.
