In one of our local variety shows, there's a pageant for little girls, 6years old and below. The contest is called, "Little Miss Philippines". They have a quick question and answer portion, and a showcase of talents. During the talent portion, the kids would either sing, dance, declame or act. And, the camera would switch focus from the kid to the moms who are just right in front of their daughters and are also either singing, dancing, declaming or acting. They are guiding their kids throughout the talent show, giving support and encouragement. It's fun to look at them do all those stunts to help their kids. It's not easy for kids to be in front of a huge audience, so it really is a big boost to see their mom's support all the way.
I have a 3yr old daughter and she enjoys watching these girls on the show. But, when I ask her if she wants to join, she would immediately give me a big "NO." Well, if she will change her mind, I wouldn't mind being on the show dancing or singing with her. I'm surely going to be a stage mom, too.

You reminded me of myself -hahaha.
My daughter is a good flute player and joined contest.
Luckily she always win and I always encourage her to participate more.
So what if I am tagged as stage mother- I wouldn't care about it.
Besides, it helps her a lot to boost her confidence and also to shine.
Well, those are the days..now my daughter is a young lady and still loves playing the flute, piano and guitar :)

Nothing wrong at all, especially if you're doing it for your daughter.
But, there are some mothers who are pushing their kids to do something out of their interests. Then, that would be wrong and really selfish.
