    Default Need More Proof Society is Near Collapse?

    To the tiny students at this dance studio, the moves are totally innocent.

    In fact, they are being instructed in the sleazy art of pole dancing. And their age? As young as three.

    Child protection groups yesterday labelled these images from the classes ‘deeply disturbing’.

    Parents pay £5 an hour for their daughters to learn pole dancing at the Little Spinners classes.
    Instructor Carly Wilford insists it helps youngsters keep fit and boosts their self-esteem.

    The children, aged three to seven, learn moves including holding their legs in a V-shape while sliding down the pole.

    The revelation comes a week after it emerged that a beauty parlour is offering make-overs and facials for children as young as one.

    Sexualization of children to make a buck and hide it behind "fitness and self-esteem"..................I really don't want to know how much lower they will go.

    The person offering this service is bad enough. The parents that think this is cool, I'm shocked.

    What decent parent would even consider this???

    Do we keep going back to the generation before to lay blame on the parents of today, or do we just blame society as a whole for the current state of affairs?

    I'd like to be able to answer your question but I don't know what kind of parents would consider this. All I know is it wouldn't be me.

    Comparable to the little ones the mothers doll up with tons of make up and have them perform. Asinine. Let kids be kids, they grow up too soon as it is. Parents do this to their off spring then can't understand when some deviant takes advantage. DUH!

    I have nothing against adults doing it, it is a fantastic work out...but not children.

    An american wouldn't have a problem with it.

    Note the lowest age of beauty pageants in the USA, which I don't rtecall being big in the UK.

    I don't think gymnastics started out in a "gentlemens only" club.....the pole is a phallic symbol, and it's pretty awkward and disgusting to see a little girl dancing provocatively around said pole.

    This is really disturbing.

    First time I ever thought of a pole as phallic symbol.

    Depends on one's point of view, doesn't it.

    LMAO you are a piece of work. I have seen both strippers and gymnasts..and if you seriously cannot tell the difference you need some serious help. The pole probably would not be seen as a sexual object if society did not have naked women twirling around them in at least one adult club in every city.

    Have you been to a strip club and watched a pole dance?
