THAT IS THE REASON IT IS A DRESS- UP THEME. WHEN YOU PUT ON SOMETHING YOU WOULDN'T NORMALLY WEAR LIKE WHAT YOU DO ON HALLOWEEN IT IS CONSIDERED DRESS-UP, I KNOW YOU PROBABLY DIDN'T PLAY THAT AS A CHILD DID YOU, JUAN?. THE CLOTHES ARE NOT TIGHT OR REVEALING ANY BODY PARTS. AS FAR AS SEXUALLY ACTIVE CHILDREN YOU CAN MAKE A CHANGE BY GOING TO SPEAK AT THE LOCAL SCHOOLS AND ARRANGING COUNSELING, FOR THE CHILDREN AT YOUR DAUGHTER'S SCHOOL, NOT BY ATTACKING THIS INNOCENT ADVERTISEMENT, IT WILL GET YOU NO-WHERE! IF THIS WAS A BACK TO SCHOOL AD I WOULD SEE YOUR POINT, BUT IT IS NOT TARGETING YOUR CHILD'S SCHOOL ATTIRE, IT IS A SIMPLE PAIR OF JEANS AND JACKET, DRESSY ENOUGH TO WEAR TO A NICE DINNER OR MOVIE. I'M WASTING TIME ON YOU, THE ADVERTISEMENT OBVIOUSLY WENT OVER YOUR HEAD IN THE CREATIVITY DEPARTMENT. DON'T BELIEVE ME? TRY AND BUY THE HIGH HEEL ON THE DEREON WEBSITE IN YOU DAUGHTER'S SIZE, IT WON'T HAPPEN!!!!! THEY DO NOT SELL THEM FOR KIDS! IT WAS DRESS UP!!!!!!!

These clothes are for sale. Someone wants your daughter to go to school wearing spike heeled boots with tight pants showing off their body. In a day in age when girls THIS young are beginning to become sexual active far before they're ready we need to do all that we can to make sure we're not promoting it through other means.

Um no thanks. I prefer they wait until they are adults before feeling the need to be "sexy". Poor taste.

Do you think it sets a bad image for young ladies to wear heals and make up? I understand the clothes are wack. I'm just asking because you're basically our resident expert as a parent.

This definitely doesn't make me want to buy these clothes for my baby girl. But, it doesn't surprise me. I mean, Beyonce's mom never did her justice when she designed her outfits, so the uglyness just trickled down...
