Ohio lawmakers understand that once you put children on stage to perform, you are monetising them. They become an object which can be exploited for profit. A profiteer would seek more children from whom to profit, and trafficking would be the outcome. These children are also being sexualised, which is child abuse. Rep Tim Schaffer said in a statement:
“Given our heightened focus on human trafficking and the role money plays in trafficking children, I knew I had to take action to make sure this activity does not occur again. We can do better to protect innocent children and we must do better,”
New legislation has been introduced that would ban drag shows and other sexually-suggestive or explicit performances from using minors. House Bill 180 amends Ohio’s child endangerment statute to include involving minors in any material or performance that “suggests a minor is participating or engaging in sexual activity, masturbation, or bestiality.” Adults violating the law could face fines starting at $1,000 and six months in prison.
JD Hendersons, a Lancaster-area bar featured a 9-year-old drag performer Jacob Measley, aka. “Miss Mae Hem” dancing in a suggestive costume while accepting dollar bills from an audience. The bill is being passed with the rise of parents exploiting their children (eg Lactatia and Mae Hem). Mae Hem's parents are 'outraged' that their child's performance is being viewed as endangerment. Some adults should not bear children.

The laws should be changed to allow for charging the parents with neglect or child endangerment for subjecting kids to this!

Oh please! Yours is a shit argument. It's women who do the bulk of the child rearing, often with deadbeat dads nowhere to be found. Perhaps if dads were involved in their children's lives, some mothers wouldn't make such crappy decisions. Or, perhaps if dads were involved, even more children would be forced into early sexualisation. It's men who do the bulk of the sex trafficking, make the porn, drug and rape little kids for their sadistic pleasure.
This is not an issue of women v. men, even though in your tiny little mind that's all you can see.

You're brainwashed to defend women regardless of facts.
Mothers abuse children more than fathers
Women file 80% of divorces and choose single-motherhood (most UK single moms are admittedly by choice for economic benefits and have never even lived with a partner).
That's what you're demanding we give credit for, merely not aborting it.
Do you think women are even net taxpayers?? You are not independent LOL that's why this makes no sense:
LMAO you might as well say kids vs. adults. Why would we even allow a dependant group to be versus us, what a silly unforced error.
