There were 10 other minors there. I wonder how young, and if their parents were informed in advance that a strip show would take place.
The scary thing is that the stripper looks like a guy in drag and the kid looks like a girl.
But one cannot help but feel sorry for the stripper's father because his daughter is disrespecting herself in front of people and one cannot help but feel disgusted that a mother instead of showing her son how to respect women would go out and hire a stripper.
I really couldn't tell. Without reading the caption, I was thinking the one on the left was Mommy.
The only New Testament verse the libs know. Must be from the Book of Job.
"She can afford a stripper but not a digital camera?"
Yeah, that was her downfall. If she printed the stuff out at home no one would be the wiser. Looking at what she hired as a stripper ... she didn't pay much for it.
Maybe there are some mandatory reporting laws? Maybe there is something in child porn statutes.
The kids may not have been naked but if there were children exposed to adult nudity, it might fall under that sort of statute.
There were more kids there than just her boy.
Young Landon needs a friggin haircut.
As to the "stripper", "she" actually looks like a, er, man.
As looks go that woman's are 100% s.k.a.n.k.

‘It didn’t harm him,’ mother says of effect on 16-year-old son
The Associated Press Updated: 5:32 a.m. ET May 29, 2005
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A mother faces criminal charges after she hired a stripper to dance at her 16-year-old son’s birthday party.
Anette Pharris, 34, has been indicted by a grand jury on charges of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and involving a minor in obscene acts. The boy’s father, the stripper and two others also face charges.
“I tried to do something special for my son,” Pharris said. “It didn’t harm him.”
About 10 people under the age of 18 were at the birthday party in September, including minors who were not related to the family, authorities said.
Police spokesman Don Aaron said minors are not permitted in adult establishments.
“A person shouldn’t be allowed to circumvent that law by hiring a stripper, a lady who took all her clothes off and spent a good amount of time dancing around minors,” he said.
Anette Pharris took photos at the party and tried to have them developed at a nearby drug store. Drug store employees notified authorities, police said.
“Who are they to tell me what I can and can’t show to my own children?” the mother said.
Sassy is looking pretty beat up at 29.
Notice the age?
"Anette Pharris, 34, hired a stripper, Cassandra Joyce Park, 29, to dance at son's 16th birthday."
The "mother" is 34 and her son is 16. She had her son when she was 18. Nothing like getting her son all jazzed up so he can start having kids.

"Anette Pharris said yesterday that she was coming up on her 18th wedding anniversary, "so I must be doing something right. Who are they to tell me what I can and can't show to my own children?"
The "mother" is about to celebrate her 18th wedding anniversary - so she was 24 when she finally got married. So she was a single "mother" for atleast six years. Now she's busy getting her son up to speed to follow in her footsteps. A normal mother would be cautious after having been through that. Nah, not this one. She shoves what got her into trouble IN HIS FACE.
She's a very mature 29.
If she's telling the truth, she was married at 16. I guess that makes her somewhat of an expert on mature 16-year-olds.
Hard to believe but sone parents DON'T want better for their children.
yeah....right....she probably looked 29 when she was 12
"At any rate, I fail to see the damage caused by having a 16 year-old boy exposed to a disturbingly ugly stripper."
It might make him think twice about having sex until he is married.
VERY mature at 12, I'm sure.
