The eduction system like most institutions has been infiltrated by psychopaths who want nothing more than to create dumbed down kids and rob them of their innocence. There is a huge disconnect between their rhetoric and what is taught in classrooms. Sure there is a need to educate kids about sex & drugs etc., but there is big difference between an anatomy/biology class vs pornography.

Add to the mix parents who are too busy or reticent to discuss these topics with their kids; and the mass social and cultural programming via TV, media, Hollywood and music videos, we end up with this here :scared::


[quote author=http://www.mamamia.com.au/rogue/alison-gold-shush-up/]
Another day, another over-sexualised music video. Except this time the star is 11 years old.

This is 11-year-old Alison Gold:

Alison Gold has just paid for and released her third song through producer Patrice Wilson. It’s called Shush Up, and there is no other way to describe it other than extremely, extremely disturbing:

From watching it a few times over, here’s what I think I’ve deciphered:

Alison robs a jewelery store and is sent to prison. Cut to lots of extremely suggestive dancing in various different places in various different states of undress. Then she gives birth to a weird doll-baby (?) and is cared for by sexy nurses. She’s visited in prison by… I don’t want to say her boyfriend or pimp (because let’s remember she is 11) but it kind of seems like it’s her boyfriend or pimp. Alison goes to a club, where lots of people in their 20 and 30′s are dancing and all over each other. She is killed in an electric chair.

Okay, time to state the absolute freaking obvious: None of this is okay. None of it. Not even remotely.

This little girl is 11-years-old. She wants to be a star (which is not an uncommon dream for a kid) and she has put her trust in the adults around her to make that happen. And this monstrosity horror-show of a video is what those adults have come up with.

Before I go on, let’s go through some history.

You may have seen Alison before in the video clip for a song she released last year called Chinese Food. It was basically a vanity video – her parents paid a producer to put together a song and film clip so Alison could have the chance to feel like a star. The producer, Patrice Wilson, is responsible for that other little ‘my parents paid for this’ gem, Rebecca Black’s and her ‘hit’ Friday.

Chinese Food (aside from being mildly racist) was pretty unremarkable. Alison’s second song, ABCDEFG, didn’t even leave a blip on the average pop-culture consumer’s radar. Once the novelty of both videos had worn off, nobody remembered Alison Gold’s name. Her chance at stardom seemed to have disappeared before her parents even had a chance to close their wallets.

But this time? It seems that somebody is determined not to let that happen again.

The result is this incredibly sexualised and extremely adult portrayal of an 11-year-old girl, that is being used by the adults around her to make a massive media impact and also a whole lot of money.

And it’s shameful.

I have three questions for the adults in Alison Gold’s life:

1. What on earth are you thinking, allowing this girl to be exploited and sexualised in a way that is not even remotely close to being appropriate?

2. Was there not one of you, at any time, in any of this, who stopped and pointed out that maybe things had gone WAY too far; that maybe the line had been so far crossed it was no longer even visible?

3. She is 11-years-old. 11-years-old. SERIOUSLY?

When faced with backlash today (including a petition to keep him away from young girls), the producer Patrice Wilson commented that “the fact about it is that if a Top 40 artist sang one of my songs, the public would love it and say bravo; however, I have a petition out against me, which I think is ridiculous and pretty funny!”

Um, yeah… BECAUSE THE ARTIST IS ELEVEN YEARS OLD.

Although seemingly confused about topics like sexualising children, Wilson is right about one thing. This kind of music video is considered standard for most of today’s female singers – many of whom are role models for young girls like Alison.

And we often explain those videos away by saying things like “But just because (insert artist here) does it in the video, doesn’t mean my daughter/sister/niece/cousin has to. Our little girls can appreciate the song and not soak up the sexual message!”

Well, that may be true for most adults but something has clearly gone terribly wrong here.

Not only is nobody trying to protect Alison Gold from overly sexual music videos, the adults in her life HAVE MADE HER THE STAR OF ONE. Have we really reached the point where everything is so sexualised that even some adults have lost sight of what the line is?

Because this video is wrong. There’s no other way to say it.

Thanks for the article, Arwenn.

I also wonder why parents have their kids join beauty pageants when they are very young. How many of them are part of a pedophile network?
The notorious case of JonBenét Ramsey comes to mind.
If parents allow their children to make a video like that maybe that is how they see their own offspring, too, as (sexual) objects. If Alison Gold had had healthy parents she would never have been allowed to make this video, OSIT. Instead of protecting her they are inviting predators into her life. In this day and age parents can't claim ignorance anymore.

My sex education was fairly technical and even prudish. :D
When a girl from my group asked our teacher why women became pregnant when they didn't want to the teacher didn't want to answer the question! She replied: Ask your parents.:lol:
Our biology teacher spoke about erections and the biology behind it, but it was all above board. And he didn't look as if he was enjoying himself. In fact, he looked annoyed when we burst out laughing.
Mind you, this was in the seventies.
 
I think this is getting sicker and sicker.

Ugh....that's totally sick. They really do have an agenda with children & teens. But what can you say when a populace is so dumbed down that Fifty Shades of Grey becomes a best-seller.

By the way, are some of the articles mentioned in this thread uploaded on to SoTT. Might be an idea for posterity if nothing else.

Have you seen those television shows that deal with little girl beauty pageants? It is disgusting, and blows my mind that people watch this, and think it is normal.

I have seen snippets of it and you are right, it is disgusting. It poisons the mind. I am afraid that most people are being sexualised in a way, we have to think this is the new normal. :shock: We are being primed to see kids differently, according to the way pedocriminals view the world.
I remember a commercial years ago that showed parts of the legs of little girls cycling wearing tights or something and I was so shocked. I wasn't even aware of anything at the time, but I knew there was something very wrong with that commercial. One couldn't see the faces of these girls, just the thighs. I complained to a friend about it, but she didn't get it. My, how we have been indoctrinated.
I really hope that parents are putting up a fight over this, because to me it seems that the pedocriminals are winning the battle. The way they go about it is frightening, it seems very well planned. The way they also attack people that stand by abused children and adults that were abused when they were kids is vicious.
 
A bill passed in Georgia (US) on Tuesday nullified the Common Core standards in the Senate but still has to pass the House. It is SB167, titled 'The Act to Restore Educational Authority to Georgia Citizens'

SB167 titled “The Act to Restore Educational Authority to Georgia Citizens” would enact measures to prevent the outsourcing of educational power from local communities to unaccountable federal bureaucrats.it would also withdraw the state from following Common Core standards.
a) Beginning on the effective date of this Code section, the State of Georgia shall retain sole control over the development and revision of the content standards established pursuant to Code Section 20-2-140 and no content standards shall be adopted or implemented except in accordance with the procedures required by Code Section 20-2-140 provided, however, that such required procedures shall not apply to courses developed and submitted by local boards of education for approval by the state board. On and after the effective date of this Code section, the state shall not adopt any federally prescribed content standards or any national content standards established by a consortium of states or a third party, including, but not limited to, the Next Generation Science Standards, the National Curriculum for Social Studies, the National Health Education Standards, or the National Sexuality Standards.
(b) No official of the State of Georgia, whether elected or appointed or representing the state in any capacity, shall join, on behalf of the state or a state agency, any consortium, association, or entity or enter into a binding agreement, when such membership or agreement would relinquish any measure of control over standards and assessments, to any individual or entity outside the state

I agree with others here that the sexualization of children is both sick and disturbing, not to mention having accelerated since my own childhood. Just going out in public, I've been shocked to see what parents are dressing their children in, and what clothing is available to purchase in stores.

Truly disgusting. It is like entering in the "psychopathic dimension", every day a step closer to the completion of the psychopathy program to conquer the minds of all humans.

Totally agree with how kids are being dressed these days (especially girls), & it's ridiculous when major retailers stock totally inappropriate clothing. It sparked a furor some time back when Target had revealing and age-inappropriate clothing:

[quote author=http://www.news.com.au/finance/business/target-misses-mark-with-hooker-clothes-for-girls/story-fnda1bsz-1226449942265]
AUSSIE parents have criticised Target Australia for selling "hooker-style" clothes to young girls.
The last 16 hours have seen a flurry of comments posted on the department store’s Facebook page from parents baulking about the department stores’ fashion range for this age group.
It all started after Port Macquarie mum, and primary school teacher Ana Amini posted that she was not prepared to shop at Target again because it was selling clothes that made young girls “look like tramps”.
“You have lost me as a customer when buying apparel for my daughter as I don't want her thinking shorts up her backside are the norm or fashionable,'' Ms Amini posted.
Unfortunately, Ms Amini’s original post has mysteriously disappeared from the Facebook page. It was replaced last night with a response from Target Australia, inviting all their customers to provide feedback on its childrenswear range.
“We know there is a huge diversity of opinion when it comes to children’s clothing which is why we believe in taking great care in ensuring that our range is both age appropriate and something that your kids will love.”

Turns out plenty of people have a lot to say to Target about this issue. The company has already received 487 likes and 385 comments from parents keen to have their say.
Most posters share Ms Amini’s distaste for the clothing range.
“Target is great ... the issue here is what a 14-year-old wears is NOT appropriate for a 7-year-old or 10-year-old for that matter ... would love to see more colours in the range rather than black, please,” posted Eva Wickham.
And: “I went looking for shorts for my 9-year-old daughter and could only find ones that looked like undies. So I had to go somewhere else, pls no tacky shorts this summer! Luved the blue little boys slim jeans very cute :-)” posted Michelle Kelsen.
Other parents pointed out that age-appropriateness was also an issue for the boys' clothing range.

Kathy Friend posted: “A lot has been said about girls' clothing, but don't forget the boys. I often buy from here but have been put off by designs of skulls. Some clothes look great except for skulls. My 4 yr old is the size of a big 5 yr old and clothes like that aren't appropriate. Unfortunately, boys have a smaller range than girls so choice is definitely limited. Other than that I find the quality awesome and when something isn't quite right, I've had no problems having them exchanged. So a plus and a minus. Good luck Target!”
The emphatic public response to Target’s post is no surprise to the parents that spoke to news.com.au.
One Sydney mother of two girls, aged 7 and 10, said there was a huge gap in this age group when it came to finding affordable and age-appropriate clothes. “You really have to trawl through the racks to find anything that’s not trampy,” she said.
She also admitted that it was more a problem for "girlie" girls who liked wearing dresses and were easily influenced by their friends and fashion. “My oldest daughter is quite sporty and she is happiest in a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt so it’s not as hard to find her something to wear,” she said.
Competition from overseas shopping outlets such as GAP Kids and Old Navy, American department stores who have a great low-cost range for kids, are also a huge factor.
“They’ll have to be careful of that. Even when you factor in the shipping costs, you still end up ahead.
“And while it’s good to try things on first, if it arrives and doesn’t fit, then you just sell it on eBay or something," she said.[/quote]
 
Thanks for sharing that article, Arwenn. My partner has grandchildren, and we stopped even looking for clothes as gifts for them because the skirts and shorts, like it states in the article are so short. It looks so inappropriate to us, and I'm glad to see parents aren't all just going along with the 'fashions'.

This may be a bit off topic, but the article you shared brought to mind another article I read a year or two back about Target tracking it's customers. In the article, Target knew a young woman was pregnant before her or her father knew it themselves. It was all over the internet. Target sent coupons right to their house for baby items. Creepy! :scared:

I believe this is the story you are speaking about. -http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2102859/How-Target-knows-shoppers-pregnant--figured-teen-father-did.html

Meeting with a Target manager while clutching some printed ads that had been delivered to his home, a customer was outraged by their product placement aimed at his young daughter.

'My daughter got this in the mail!' the man said to the manager according to the Times, showing him the store's coupons advertising baby-related products.

'She's still in high school, and you're sending her coupons for baby clothes and cribs? Are you trying to encourage her to get pregnant?' the man asked the manager who responded with a baffled apology.

The manager himself didn't know why the man's daughter had received the items.
Changes: Target's ability to hone in on their customers' needs based on their spending history can reveal such lifestyle changes as pregnancy

He followed up with a phone call to him later on, apologizing again.

What the manager didn't know was that the company's analytics department most likely had noticed a pattern of products related to early pregnancy purchased by the man's daughter.

Clues such as vitamin supplements, large quantities of lotion, and hand sanitizers, typical to many pregnant women according to the Target department, signal other items the consumer may need.
Trend: Products commonly purchased before pregnancy signaled to Target one teen's pregnancy which had escaped her own father, leading to ads to her for baby care

Or as a woman's pregnancy continues, what she will soon need, like diapers.

'I had a talk with my daughter,' the man responded later to the Target manager after listening to his second apology on the phone.

'It turns out there's been some activities in my house I haven't been completely aware of. She's due in August. I owe you an apology,' he said.

Target says they became so in tune with their consumers based on their spending habits, their next focus had to be on masking the obviousness in their work.

'If we send someone a catalogue and say, ‘Congratulations on your first child!’ and they’ve never told us they’re pregnant, that’s going to make some people uncomfortable,' Andrew Pole, a statistician with Target told the New York Times' Charles Duhigg.

The effort was to avoid a creeped out, stalker-like feeling from their targeted customers.

Updating their layout and style of ads mailed out to their customers, they instead mixed custom-selected products - those based on their information - in with some randomly selected.

The effect diluted the obviousness of their message.

In example, a randomly selected advertisement for cereal may be placed next to an advertisement for diapers, clandestinely as the company knows which may be more of a need to the ad's recipient.
Targeted: Collecting each customer's trend in purchases, in addition to other information, gave the company such an eye for their needs they soon had to make their skill less obvious to prevent unease

Targeted: Collecting each customer's trend in purchases, in addition to other information, gave the company such an eye for their needs they soon had to make their skill less obvious to prevent unease

Assigning each customer with their own ID number or guest code, the company, like many others, collects and stores their data for these customized shopping suggestions.

Some companies even have the option of buying information from third-party companies specific to tracking a consumer's background.

Race, occupation, relationship status, age, these are all crucial details for labelling and lumping individuals into what their target needs may be.

But as the Times reports, it can get as specific as what magazines a consumer reads, to their credit history, and conversations they've held online.

'And we found out that as long as a pregnant woman thinks she hasn’t been spied on, she’ll use the coupons,' Mr Pole said.
Success: After narrowing in on their customers' specific needs, Target's Mom and Baby sales skyrocketed

Target would not reveal which information about their consumers they specifically use and collect.

'She just assumes that everyone else on her block got the same mailer for diapers and cribs. As long as we don’t spook her, it works,' he said.

How successful has this ad placement been?

Soon after put in place, Target's Mom and Baby sales skyrocketed.

Really seems there's no end to how sick our society has become. This is proof that there's something else going on - normalization AND at younger and younger ages. Because I can't see how this can be considered "sex education" for children. SICK!
