For 8 years old, she is not properly dressed nor is her hair for an 8 year old – 16 year old maybe – trying to make little kids grow up too fast. Let them be kids and look like kids. They only get one childhood for life.

The whole look is far too grown up for me. The hair is not one for a litle girl and certainly that outfit isn’t either. Leopard leggings are too tarty.
I Have been a fan of Julian 15 years and he seems a great father, and I’m sure they are raising her well but I have always thought she is dressed up way beyond her years. But it’s not just them, alot of parents seem to do it now as well.

Madison’s a really beautiful girl. She looks a lot her daddy Julian McMahon. There are tons of sites with pics of him with Madison. All his co-stars from Sandra Bullock to Jessica Alba, Alyssa Milano to Nip/Tuck’s cast say he’s an amazing father. Brooke says Madison loves him like crazy.

What a cutie!!!
My daughter is going to be 4 years old soon and I keep thinking I’m going to go to bed one night and will wake up and she will be a big independant 8 year old!
It’s really nice to see that other moms encourage their children to be and look like who they want to look like Yay!!

She is a very tall and pretty girl! That haircut is not my favorite, but its not my hair kwim. I’m surprised that I never see pictures of Madison with her dad (who is super hot). Madison is very tomboyish in that pic.

A haircut does not automatically confuse a person regarding gender orientation. Same goes for little boys wanting to wear dresses and little girls having a car as their favourite toy. Let them! When a little boy plays dress up in a dress it does not mean he will turn out gay and an 8 year old girl with short hair do not necessarily identify herself as a boy. Stop with all this nonsense mumbo jumbo people! Stop judging our kids and stop trying to keep them in the, what, 1850’s.

So what if her haircut is typically “boyish”? That does not make her any less of a person (child!), it does not mean she’s confused and it certainly does not mean she’s a boy.

I’m all for gender transcending. We don’t NEED these stupid labels. The only thing those gender labels do is limit us and our kids.

I do find this a little bit strange that we’re allowed to comment on Madison’s short hair, but not Celine Dion’s son’s long hair….like I said, I’m not a fan of the boy cut for little girls (not so bad when they’re older), but it’s nice that mum and dad are not stuck in their ways about what’s right for girls and boys.

I had hair that short at about that age, too… but in a wedge…. I love short hair, but I do think whoever cut it made it a little TOO boyish… there are techniques to do it and still make it clear the child is a girl.

BUT… when it starts getting shaggy, that can be fixed.

Brave mom and dad letting her go that short. I hope my daughter NEVER (since she cut her own hair several months back and it had to go short to even it) wants her hair that short. My boys are short hair fanatics… I want someone with pretty hair that I can play with!

The haircut is way cute! To me, it’s the outfit that’s a bit meh……

Anyway, I love short cuts on girls….kinda tired of seeing the long hair style all the time….gets old. Plus hair does grow back, which makes it fun to change up the look sometimes!
