Flavin's central theory suggested that the "loosey-goosey" nature of Hollywood, where "it's all about expression," is detrimental to the development of young minds. She asserted that celebrity children are often treated as "accessories" rather than "little human beings that need structure." This deficit of firm boundaries, she argued, creates an environment where "there's just too much of everything," which "gets really confusing for a little person." In her view, this overwhelming, permissive atmosphere may lead children to embrace new identities, including transgender ones, as a form of expression without the necessary grounding of "good common sense" parenting.
