The Issue

"Children must be children. They should not try to strive to be something they are not." — Jan Lagermand Lundme

For your information Mr. Lundme, children are indeed children and they never strive to be adults. Why not learn to live with the current format of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest, which has created future pop stars since 2003?

Denmark has competed in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest three times, courtesy of Danish Broadcasting Corporation, who hosted the inaugural contest in 2003 after developing the now-extinct predecessor MGP Nordic. Having come in the top five in the first three years of Junior Eurovision, DR pulled out in 2006 as a protest against the access pressure put on the singers, thus being happy with the revived MGP Nordic competition. And now, since 2011, DR holds MGP Junior in late February or early March, when the European Broadcasting Union requires potential Junior Eurovision entries to be commercially published from 1 May onward. Should DR have a change of heart and give Junior Eurovision another try, an internal selection would be best due to MGP Junior being held in late winter.
