Well...
... my missus started because a mate of her dad's (I think) was doing the packaging for Fuzzyfelt (I think), needed some kids to put on the front of the boxes and so asked the FIL if Mrs ScousersPet would like to do it. She then did a few other things for toys (she has a Plasticine box with her on the cover as a nipper) and then was asked to do clothes stuff for catalogues. Her folks didn't have a problem with her doing swimwear or underwear because it was all for legit companies, not just for modelling's sake or for "Little Miss" type competitions. She was just a hanger for the clothes, really. They never pushed her to do it and when she said she didn't want to do it anymore, they didn't mind at all, it was entirely her choice.

She also go all the money she made from it when she went to uni, everything ewas paid into a savings acount that she could only access when she turned 18.

She only stopped when she was in her early teens because her boobs ballooned and there's not much call for a kid's clothes model with a DD chest. But she said she liked doing it, I think mostly because she's a bit of an attention-seeker, and said a few times she would have quite happily done it again once she was a bit older if she hadn't put a bit of weight on in her teens.

We've got a daughter now and, if she wanted to, I wouldn't object to her doing modelling like her mum did (you have no idea how many times I had to rephrase that so it didn't sound really pervy).
