On a recent episode of Toddlers & Tiaras, one of the tiny contestants was seen smoking a cigarette as part of her act!!
Okay, well, yes, it was a prop, but still, what a terrible example for her child and other children watching!
Even a prop is setting a bad standard for this little girl who almost will surely one day try the real thing now when she's old enough. Just looking at that pic (above) is disturbing enough!
The fate of Toddlers & Tiaras star Maddy Verst is up in the air, and pageant moms across the country are nervously watching to see how the judge lands.
Over the course of a bitter custody battle, child beauty pageants have come under close scrutiny, mostly due to the outrage of Maddy's father Bill Verst.
Maddy and her mother Lindsay Jackson have already been banned from pageants after a scathing court psychologist's report.
Now stage moms everywhere are wondering if the ruling will set a precedent; if the judge rules that Maddy is being harmed, then all pageant moms are in danger!
Ch-ch-check out the video (above) to see an example of a pageant mom we would love to see banned!
Could enrolling your daughter in pageants be grounds to lose custody? If so, is this the end of Toddlers & Tiaras?

"I think alcohol is way more dangerous than marijuana -- people can be mad at me for saying that, but I don't care... I've seen a lot of people spiral down with alcohol, but I've never seen that happen with weed."
She added:
"As long as it isn't illegal, there are far more dangerous things. And it's legal in the state of California. So I'm happy to live in California, a place where you can be whoever you want to be."
Well, Miley, marijuana isn’t exactly legal in California unless you have a prescription, so we’re not entirely sure what you mean. But, okay...
As for her transition from Disney teen idol to mature pop star, she said:
