    What drives a mother to take her daughter to a tanning salon? Patricia Krentcil, also known as “tanning mom”, was accused of taking her five year old daughter to a tanning salon. When a concerned teacher saw the young child with a sunburn, she contacted the authorities. Krentcil was dumbfounded when she learned of this accusation. Although Krentcil did take her daughter to the salon she claimed that she never actually took her into a tanning bed. "She never went in," Krentcil told the [“Today”] show. "It was beautiful out, and they went into the kiddie pool. She's a redhead. She got sunburnt" (Moye). It’s news headlines like this that make people reflect back on their own habits.
