    Jaypers dudes, calm down will yiz. Ian hardly "knowingly" misconstrued what I said, I'm just not explaining myself very well. Lookit, I don't think a kid wearing a "future porn star" t-shirt is "just fucking wrong". It creeps me out a bit to see it, but that's about me rather than them, and I'm...

    "Nostalgia" is what it's called. Hoho. I'm half joking. I agree with you though

    Yeah, but they pick it up all arseways. Mine do anyway. But they're young yet, maybe I'll change my tune when they're older and come back here and say "Jill Hives was right all along" :) We're kinda protected living out in the countryside though (with no TV)

    Hey maybe we can agree that while simply wearing a "future porn star" t-shirt isn't going to do a kid any harm, if it's an indicator that she's growing up in an environment where availability to the opposite sex is seen as all-important then she's unlikely to grown up to be a well-adjusted woman

    There's a difference between know and understand. edit: obviously you know this, sorry, didn't mean to seem patronising :( It's just the "understand" part of what I said was important - a kid might know what a prostitute or a porn actor is, but until he/she has a sex drive they're not really...

    Naw. As I is John says, they're disturbing for adults, and letting your kids wear them makes you look bad, but the clothes aren't going to do the kids any harm

    bad parents?

    A 10 year old could read the words, but not understand them. Did you understand what porn was when you were 10? I knew how babies were made since before I went to school, but you need to have a sex drive to understand sex, otherwise it's just some other grown-up mystery like having a job or...

    FWIW I agree with Gaz's long post, and there's some sense in this too: The way I see it, a kid is always a kid. We feel uneasy when we see a kid doing something that seems "adult", but that's our problem rather than the kid's, because what the kid in this kinda situation is actually doing is...

    Pinkest and sparkliest t-shirt in the shop, I expect. Unlikely the kid can read or understand any of the words, except maybe "star" (which, in little girl land, usually means something good). Most likely explanation is the child wanted it and the Mam was too embarrassed to explain why she was...

    bad parents?

    We actually don't have any of them because they still make me feel a little uneasy, but I think I'll have to change my tune because my uneasiness can't be explained in child terms and it's child terms that actually matter when you're a child. It's ended up Isabelle thinking I won't allow her...

    It's like Bratz - before I had my own girls I thought they were kinda sinister and slutty, now I realise they're just dolls. Like, y'know, for kids

    TBH I don't think it's much different from dressing up as a princess (which mine do all the time). Don't judge a child's experience of childhood by their clothes - what those clothes mean to you and what they mean to the kids are likely totally different
