I think you daughter will find the USA system easy and fun. It is much less pressure. Downsides-A steep entry fee and not much in the way of prizes for anyone but the winner. Upsides-It is usually just a one or two day event which means less expenses for the family and in most states you don't have to win a local preliminary pageant in order to participate. -- The New Miss Teen USA message Board (unofficial)

[> Subject: Thank you to all who posted. My daughter just competed in MI and placed in the top 15. She was thrilled and is excited to do the pageant again! It was way more fun, according to her. She is done with MAO for the time being, at least until she ages out of teen in this system.
