I was in line at Time Hurton’s over the weekend and standing behind me was a lady with three kids. The oldest looked about ten. She couldn’t have been much more then a year older the my daughter. She was thin, blond hair, in skin tight clothes and full of attitude. She also had on eye make up. Not play make up, real mascara and eye liner with a little blue shadow. When I turned around and saw her face it made me get that creepy feeling in my gut. Like she was on her way to some kiddie porn meeting or some thing. I can’t even imagine my daughter Allison wearing eye make up like that next year!
Now don’t get me wrong. I know my older daughter Bethany was wearing make up around twelve I think it was. I know it was way before I “aloud” her to because I can remember finding it in her room and throwing it away. At least I tried. I sure didn’t allow her to wear it. Am I over reacting? At what age do you think it is appropriate to wear real eye make up?
