I'm passing on this link Parents don't dress your girls like tramps because I really appreciated it, and also because by the time I got halfway through and he said, "Which raises the question: What in the hell is wrong with us?" I wanted to applaud--because he said it, and because he said "us." So I'm passing it on.
and plus I'm feeling dicey about that last post, and if it's not the one at the top of the pile, I'll sleep better. My mouse has been twitching over the delete button, but I'm being brave and leaving it there. See, Julie, I listen (sometimes).
I thought that article was fabulous. I have an eleven year old girl and when I see what her friends are dressed in, it makes me cringe. Drives me nuts (which is not a long drive, truth be told).
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the time Daniel and I were walking through a mall (yack and ick, I know, but sometimes it has to be done) and he looked at a display window for some kid clothes shop saying, "nice, Whores R Us, for seven year olds. Shit."
