As distasteful...

... as the concept of compulsory spelling contests, little miss beauty competitions, rumspringa or jesuscamps. Children or youngsters with no volition in the matter due to indoctrination emphasizing shame, guilt and what not fabricated thoughts of impending inadequacy, used as trophies by adults having their wishful fantasies turned into delusions.

Sickening behaviour of the kind most condemnable.
