Cate Blanchett Slams Teen Plastic Surgery
Cate Blanchett has blasted mothers who allow their children to have plastic surgery in an attempt to mimic their Hollywood idols. The actress admits she is relieved she is mother to two sons because girls are under so much pressure to be body perfect.
She says, “It’s a big difference women in their 60s or 70s finally deciding to get their eyes done. Who knows what you’re going to think? But when you’ve got an 18-year-old daughter who says ‘Mummy can I get a boob job?’ and you go ‘Sure honey’.
“I mean their bodies haven’t even finished evolving. The fact that you’ve got a magazine, you know all these magazines for teenage girls about consuming and they’re so fragile. I’ve got sons. I don’t know what I’d do if I had a daughter.”

I completely agree with her. Until an individual is mature enough to make an educated decision of their own, their legal guardians should act as guardians and protect their wards from making permanent, uneducated decisions.
