Mom Arrested for Taking 5 Year Old into Tanning Booth

I totally agree. The thing that's really messed up is that SHE doesn't see it as a problem. She must have some kind of psychological disorder. I hope the kid ends up okay...

She looks like an old shoe. Child protective services should be seriously considering removing the daughter from her custody.
