I'm not a big fan of Morgan Lash's talent, and I personally disagreed with her answer, but she also DESERVED TO WIN. Rachel would have been an amazing winner too. I cannot believe that Emma and Kathleen were in the top 3. It is such a mess. |

Kudos Patty for not only standing up for Emma, but for doing so with your name next to your remarks. I'm a loan lurker and first time poster who first found out about this forum two years ago after witnessing my first local... The one constant here - SPINELESS POSTERS.
It is one thing to sit on the sidelines or stand next to the water cooler and play Monday morning quarterback. It's another entirely to viciously attack others and do so without the courage to sign your name at the end of your remarks. But that's the norm around these parts.
At the day's end, this is a pageant meant to build up girl's self esteem, courage, stage presence, and an opportunity to earn a few scholarship dollars along the way. What it appears to have devolved into, here in the day and age of helicopter parents and self-absorbed, social media obsessed children, is a volatile, vent zone where bitter, disappointed miscreants serve as sycophants to perpetuate an unending sense of entitlement amongst the contestants and their hyper-biassed parents.
The one thing you should not expect to find here is rational discourse or constructive criticism... it's just loathing, self pity, self-aggrandizing, and an unending stream of jealousy.
Your daughter was beautiful on stage and I hope she made you very proud.
