Gun, whatever else you lay at her door, the woman pays her own way.
She works as a referral agent for plastic surgery, and on any slow news day she knows she can get her name and face in the paper. She's a self-promotor of course. But it's always the right-wing reactionary press that feature her and encourage her.
Whether this is as bad or worse than the purported gifts is open to discussion.
Many D-list celebs use their children to make news.
There are plenty of worse off children out there. She is growing up in her mother's skewed world, but it's a world many women understand.
She's not being starved, beaten, sexually abused, kept away from school or exposed to drugs/ alcohol/ prostitution. I'm not comparing like for like, I'm just saying as a way of preparing a child to exist in the outside world, she's not really warping her. Better she thinks perfect boobs will make her popular than that Daddies can hit Mummies when they're drunk.
I don't support her, I've just shifted my moral balance a little since meeting children who face problems at home. And I work in a generally affluent area.
The ideal is educated children with a safe home life and a positive self image.
And yummy healthy snacks for all and parent(s) that tuck you in at night and read you stories.
