When my daughter gets to the sixth grade, I think I'm putting her in boxers.

Sexualizing kids really stinks. Another thing to fight.

Sure, but I would leave that to the parents. I don't want the school checking young girls' underwear.

Our girls are in bike shorts under clothes (no chance of sneak peeks cause they're snug). LOL

Dress code at their school says among things: all nine-yr-olds and up must shower daily and use deodorant.

If I had a teenage daughter, I'd hope that Iraq got into the private school business so I could put her in a burqua away from boys for about six years.

Seriously. I don't see how the school can tell the parents what underwear they can have their little Lolitas can choose. They can tell them to put gym shorts over them in PhysEd class. I can't imagine the sweet young things are comfortable in thongs jumping on trampolines and all of that.

Until parents get mad and put some pressure on corporations that are dressing their little girls like hookers-in-training, the girls are going to look like they do.

"sexualizing kids really stinks. Another thing to fight."

I really am worried sick about what society will be like when my two toddlers reach adolescence. Things seem to be on a smooth downward slope. What on earth are these parents thinking about? Why would you let your 10 year old daughter wear a THONG? Call me a prude, but I wouldn't like a 20 year old daughter to wear one....it screams "I have a cheap, slutty view of myself".

On a similar topic, have you seen some of the prom gowns that clueless parents are allowing their daughters to wear these days? I kid you not...I saw a gal going to a prom a week or so ago in a gown that was totally sheer except for two fabric seashells over her breasts and one over her crotch. She would have fit right in at a centerfold photo shoot.

Sexualizing kids really stinks. Another thing to fight. Sexualizing kids is the main problem with kids today. Parents do it, the media does it and peer pressure does it. I think that even the drug use is made worse by the premature sexualization of kids.

Sorry folks, this is the tip of the iceberg. Parents are what is wrong with education, not schools.

Parents are just pissed that schools won't take the entire surrogate parent responsibilities away from them, so they can get back to The Bachelor.
