See my comment above on CHILD BEAUTY PAGEANTS - such as the genre Jon Benet Ramsey was involved with. The kids show up with the equivalent of a $300 hair-and-makeup job, wear skimpy outfits and do sexy dances, songs and skits. An eyebrow or two gets raised, but nothing more. More than an eyebrow or two should be raised over the child beauty pageants. The people who run the pageants make big money by selling the videos of the contests. Sure, some of the people who buy such videos are the parents, but most of the consumers of those videos are the same pervs who look at these child modeling sites.
And the parents/pimps who use their daughters in the child beauty pageants use the same arguments as the parents/pimps in the article above -- they're getting money for their children's college funds, they're raising their daughters' self-esteem, etc. Give me a break.

The government has placed an order for the surplus small-size burkhas left over in Afghanistan. Wearing them will be compulsory. However, parents will still be permitted to kiss and hug their own children, provided it is done in the privacy of their own home, and another adult is present. Oh please. So you're saying that anybody who thinks that it's wrong for parents to exploit their children in pictures for perverts is as bad as the Taliban?

No. Just that Congress passing laws, attempting to solve this problem, would create other problems that are even worse.
Criminal law is a suitable instrument for the prevention of major crimes like robbery, rape, and murder. It is not suited to regulate the nuances of ordinary social interactions.
Certain types of bad behavior is best repressed by social convention, not the legal system. Naturally, some people will do disgusting things anyway, just as there are many crimes committed despite all the laws they keep passing.

I guess I missed the "nuances of ordinary social interactions" in having a seven-year-old named "Stacy Starlet" pose in a bikini on the internet.
