This Is All Kinds Of Wrong of the Day: The latest Toddlers & Tiaras mom-cum-madam embroiled in controversy (previously) has spoken out in defense of her indefensible decision to dress her daughter like a hooker.

Wendy Dickey told TMZ the hooker outfit did not harm her 3-year-old daughter Paisley, insisting that the costume — modeled after the character played by Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman — was “less revealing than gymnastics wear and swimsuits.”

According to Dickey, Paisley also paraded around the beauty pageant stage as the “classy” version of Roberts’ character, but that scene was left on TLC’s cutting room floor.

“People need to look at their own family and what they’re doing,” Dickey went on to say. “I don’t know why people are focusing so much on pageant moms when there’s much more harmful things people are letting their children do!”

PROTIP: If your best defense is “there are worse ways to harm a kid,” you’re not doing a very good job defending yourself.
