When I was a student athlete, I had certain world class athletes for whom I had respect, but you know, it was their poise on the court or the track that I admired. Their athleticism, not their personal lives, ya know? These days we're too quick to hold someone up to our kids because they like 'em. Sure, you can enjoy the way someone sings but you don't have to live their lives. I'm saddened that girls have so little respect for themselves that they think acting like a porn star and objectifying themselves is the way to go. Yikes, man.

I suppose I miss those days, because SOMEONE has to draw the line when it comes to our children. There was a time Disney would have ended a contract over less.

Everyone feels the same way. How sad isn't it? I think do what you wish in private - but she's young to be thinking it's okay for your boyfriend to take nude pictures of you. How sad for her! I did read that Disney came out and said they support her! Not the nude pics but her and they feel bad it got into the public eye, etc. I read about it and started a thread on a forum I frequent.
