I swear, I thought that kid was 6, not 5. Don't know why. Will she attend some version of kindergarten, I wonder? Suri was born about three months before my granddaughter, so It's easy to keep track. Granddaughter hadn't had a blanket, lovey, bottle, or bippie for three years. She hadn't been carried for two years. She reads, does simple math. Just today, I made a quip about it snowing last night, and she shook her head and said, "Come on, Nana, it's not April Fool's Day" in a sarcastic tone. In other words, if anything, Suri is depressingly delayed. That fact that we are all surprised that she can talk at all says much about how the Scieno's have screwed up the "golden child" scenario.

Where are you getting "depressingly delayed" from? Overindulged, sure, permanently stressed due to her parents trotting her out, almost certainly, but delayed? That's assuming quite a lot.

"Delayed" doesn't (nessecarily) mean mentally or funtionally, but she is certainly socially delayed, for all the reasons mentioned...being trotted out in front of cameras at all hours of the day and night, being over indulged, and needing a bottle and a bippie and blanket to self soothe and still being carried etc.

They are trying to make her seem younger (blankie, bottle, pacifier) and precocious beyond her years (Broadway plays at night, late-night excursions to restaurants geared toward adults) but will she ever be put across as smart? That should be good--she'll e reading War and Peace at 7 or 8. Oh, I take that ack. She'll be an OT 7 million or whatever Daddy is.

Popsugar has pictures of Shiloh walking around with her blanket and sucking her thumb and they're nearly the same age, aren't they?
I'm not gonna fault these kids needing security blankets when they're constantly hounded by paps. The paps probably terrify newly famous adults, I can't imagine having to deal with that at 5 years old.

Where I can completely understand the need for a secure feeling at a young age when riding something scary as a helicopter or airplane, Suri has to tote her blanket, bottle, doll everywhere she goes or she'll go bizerk. It's mostly because her parents throw her into these horrible situations that no child should have to endure. As previously said, her parents aren't being parents. They aren't protecting her or having her best interest in mind. All they care about is the exposure and how it makes them look like this well oiled unit. At this age, she should be making (HA! Should have already would be more like it!) the transition to at least drop the bottle. But like we can tell with the video, this kid is fed up with all the paparazzi and attention. Hearing her say, "Take a picture of my baby, instead!!" makes me wonder if it's more than just her being annoyed with the photographers themselves, and more that she's told in the car beforehand, "Now, Suri, they're all here to take your picture! Smile for mommie and look happy!" Typical defiance would immediately kick in if one at that age was unhappy or feeling very perturbed. You tell 'em, Suri! Bot & Tammy should just have a doll instead!

I've seen many pics of the Brangelina kids going to school and going to children's parties, I think they have as normal a life as a kid can in that situation. And for the most part, they look healthy, happy and normal, the same cannot be said for Suri.

Normal parents, celeb or otherwise, put their child first. With Katie and CTC their image and publicity come way, way ahead of that poor child.
