Rose:
Yeah I have to agree with you. Baylee's what, 10? Way too young.

emilo:
Baylee's a really talented singer, actually, but I do think this isn't the right audience at all to introduce him as an artist, if that happens to actually be what he wants to do with his life.  He'll eventually resent them for that.

mare:
Lots of 10 year olds are good singers. He should not be opening for thousands of people just because his dad is in the band. Just my opinion and I agree, he's going to resent them especially if he ends up in therapy and/or rehab! 

And now they'll be selling Wylee/Baylee shirts? It's like they're turning it into a family affair. I don't know, it annoys the crap out of me LOL

RokofAges75:
Those Mindless Behavior guys they had opening for them a few years ago were not much older than Baylee, and that was super awkward because they were doing pelvic thrusts while they sang LOL.  As long as Baylee doesn't do that, I don't have a problem with him performing.

I missed this chat, but here is my take on it based on what I've read here.  I'm assuming this is happening because BAYLEE wants to, not because Brian and Leighanne want him to.  I won't say this for Leighanne, but I don't think BRIAN would allow this unless Baylee really wanted to.  And if Baylee really does want to get into the business, this would be a great opportunity for him to get some experience.  If it's only two songs, it's not like he's performing a whole concert or even a whole set.  It's two songs.

You can easily compare this to Nick, who was performing at this age, and Aaron, who opened for BSB back in the day, but what separates Brian and Leighanne from Bob and Jane Carter is the fact that Brian and Leighanne aren't exploiting their kid for money and fame because they already HAVE money and fame.  I really think it's just for fun and not all that serious.  Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing him perform!  Much more than DJ Pauly D or Jesse McCartney, anyway LOL.

mare:
I think it's also okay to tell your ten year old son no from time to time, something I think Baylee doesn't here very often.

I just think that kid is going to have some major entitlement issues if he keeps getting whatever he wants. I do agree, I know they aren't exploiting him, but they are exploiting US!

You are right about those Mindless Behavior people though and I'm sure Baylee will be better than DJ Pauly lol
