Patch's Poll: How Tan Is Too Tan?

A case in Nutley, N.J., in which a mom is accused of taking her 6-year-old to a tanning salon has made us wonder. Take our poll and add your thoughts in the comments (and please, watch the video).

The mom in Nutley, N.J., who is accused of tanning her young child at a local salon to the point of causing a sunburn says the kid was merely waiting for her while she tanned.

Whatever actually happened, the woman has become an Internet sensation because of the extent that she has "tanned" (or oranged) herself.

In Connecticut, a bill failed in the General Assembly this session to require teenagers to get parental permission to tan.

What do you think? Do you tan? Is there such a thing as too tan? How many times have you watched that mom on YouTube? Take our poll and add your thoughts in the comments.
