Many  people say what the mom is doing is child abuse, but she insists she\u2019s  not the only mother giving Botox to her child.<\/p>\n<p><em>Britney: It  hurts and I get used to it\u2026<br>\nReporter: Do you cry?<br>\nBritney: A little.<br>\nReporter: You do?<br>\nBritney: But now, I  don\u2019t.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Britney is only 8 years old, but she gets Botox injections regularly.  Her mother, Kerry Campbell, told ABC\u2019s Good Morning America she  administers the shots. Campbell has been entering her daughter in beauty  pageants and says she got the idea from other moms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd they  were just telling me about the lines on her face and how, you know a lot  of the moms there, they\u2019re giving their kids Botox. And it\u2019s pretty  much like the thing. I\u2019m not the only one that does it,\u201d said Campbell.<\/p>\n<p>Viewers who watched the story Thursday morning were outraged. In fact,  San Francisco\u2019s Child Protective Services was flooded with calls from  people concerned about Britney\u2019s well-being.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to sit  down and talk with the mom, talk with the child, and see what\u2019s going  on,\u201d said Trent Rohrer.<\/p>\n<p>Rohrer is in charge of San Francisco\u2019s  Child Protective Services. He says his staff has launched an  investigation. They\u2019re working with the police department.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s pretty unusual for a mom to be injecting an 8-year-old with Botox  and certainly is grounds for an investigation,\u201d said Rohrer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Check out more at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/abclocal.go.com\/kgo\/story?section=news\/bizarre&amp;id=8127752\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">the link<\/a><\/strong>, along with video.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And now\u00a0 the mother is under investigation.
