So, How Is This Any Different Than Dance Moms?

From Fox News: A sexually-suggestive viral video of a 6-year-old boy cavorting with bikini-clad women was just a "joke," said the director, who defended his role in shooting the footage for the kid's parents.
In the video, which has since been pulled from YouTube, the boy is sandwiched between two bikini-covered backsides as he sings: "I can make your booty pop, booty pop, booty pop." He later holds a water gun near his crotch and douses a dancer. Florida authorities refused to say if the boy's parents or anyone else involved in the video are being investigated.
"It's supposed to be a joke, but I'd say [only] about 30 percent of the people watching it find it funny," Tyler Council, president of the Florida-based Froze-N-Time Productions, told the Miami New Times. "But I still don't regret it."
The video drew outrage throughout the blogosphere, with some critics in the African-American community calling for the parents of the boy, who is not being identified by FoxNews.com, to be charged with child abuse.
Then you have the TV show "Dance Moms" which is a pedophile gift from heaven.  The girls, mostly pre-teen, prance around in very revealing and sexy clothing and at times, make suggestive moves while dancing (note: my wife likes the show, I don't watch it anymore) under the direction of Attila the Hun.  The "mothers", all who are helicopter moms, of the kids are ok with their kids being the object of affection to pedophiles.
What the kid and his parents allowed in Florida is tacky but most likely, the kid has no idea what he was saying or doing.  How is any different that in the movie, "Good Morning Vietnam", where they showed two kids, about the same age or maybe just a little younger, completely naked and they did a front shot.  
So, in the end, I don't think this harmed the boy but it certainly was stupid and tacky.  Finally, I bet there are a few adults who wished they were in this kid's shoes.
