"Sunbed mother accused of allowing her five-year-old daughter in tanning booth."


A recent story of a mother that lives in New Jersey currently at this time was actually accused of bringing her five year old daughter tanning with her. Her daughter is now six and has complained to the school's nurse that she was itchy from "the tanning bed" when she was with her mother. The school imediatly took this seriously and researched this issue. Turns out children under the age of fourteen are not allowed to be in a tanning bed nor the stand up bed. This little girl is far much to young to be the tanning bed and could harm her health in the future. Although being in the "tanning room" is harmless if your actually not in the bed. The ultraviolet rays that the tanning beds produce a great risk of developing cancer. After a few court meetings, this New Jersey mother claims that her daughter did not enter the tanning bed she was just simply in the "tanning room" with her. "I'm not going to bring my little daughter into a ninety degree bed. I mean that's not normal." She says. Evidence shows that her daughter is sunburned on her body, the mother claims that it's not from any tanning bed that it was from her daughter just playing outside on a unseasonably warm day. The mothers image of tan is obvious she abuses the machines to her advantage of a good tan. Her tan just looks so unnatural. Which concludes that she spends her money and spare time at the salon. The mother has pleaded not guilty and charges at this time are second degree child endangerment with a fine over two thousand dollars! Employees that were working the believed day of the mother daughter tan, said that the little girl stood outside the room with her father and never entered the tanning bed. They were simply just waiting for her mother to finish. After every session her mother is just setting a bad example for her little girl in protecting her body, shes considered a "tanorexic". Some say relating this case that to many young kids are developing cancer in their adult hood and they are thinking that the UVB rays from the tanning machines are the cause. UVB's only have one purpose that they are to darken the skins color, that doesn't even sound healthy. Because of this, a law in the future may be passed saying that minors need parental permission to use the tanning beds. wc=114
