LO did a modelling shoot today.  We only do them with people we know and if they are close, convenient, understanding, easy, well-funded shoots.  LO gets ALL the money put in an account for her.  We would walk otherwise.

She loved the shoot today.  They blew bubbles over her head and she got to eat crackers while laying down in a super comfy toddler bed.  We took lots of breaks, ate, had fun.

Both of the other babies cried the whole day.  One mom shouted over and over (to her at most 8 month old baby) "STOP BEING UGLY! NO ONE CARES THAT YOU'RE CRYING!"

Her baby was upset because they were putting him in a crib and he has bad associations with that...I'm guessing they do "cry it out" where you leave the baby alone in a room to "teach how to sleep."

I posted a quick photo from the shoot and someone said in Korean "your baby has a job?! is she buying clothes for her parents?!" I struggled with letting LO participate in the first place...now I feel like I'm no better than the name-calling, shaming Momma.
