I recently encountered a Mother of a 5 year old who told her daughter she had to suffer for fashion. The Mother wanted the 5 year old to wear tight, skinny jeans. The 5 year old didn't want to wear them, they were uncomfortable.The Mother won. Next they battled about pierced ears. The 5 year old didn't want her ears pierced. Thankfully the 5 year old won that battle. It was like watching an episode of Toddlers and Tiaras where the Mother tries to live vicariously through her daughter.

"Toddlers and Tiaras" gives me the heebie-jeebies. It's a pedophile's dream show.

I have teenage daughters. We have had the clothes discussion on several occasions. They may think a look is cute because they see it on TV or in a magazine, but it translates to "putting it out there" when they wear it in real life. So far I think the message is getting through. For the time being.

Yeah pretty sick out there I’d say when the tables are turned that way.
