I have lived in this skin for nineteen years, I have breathed this life since you first put me on a pageant runway at the age of two.
You created me, yet you look at me as if I am a monster.
Look at yourself, mother, look at yourself.
I am who and what you made me.

How tragic. To be in the limelight from such a young age and to have no childhood to speak of. What price fame? Lovely FSF, Freya!
It happens, it happens… thank you!
Great response to the prompt. Love the point of view.
Thank you. I remember seeing the mmums pushing their daughters into ballet classes and wondering who it was for – the girl or the parent?
