I just got an ad flyer from Penney’s in the mail and saw the shorts. Egad. They don’t cover much of anything that needs to be covered! Ugh.
My bf’s 14 yr old daughter had her cheerleading banquet a few weeks ago. Her mom was out of town so I went with them. Had to take her shopping the day before for a new dress. Penney’s had NOTHING appropriate for her age. Hit paydirt at Macy’s and it was even on sale.
I was appalled by the clothing almost worn by more than half the girls at the banquet. I’m 47, so not exactly ancient, but these kids were dressed totally inappropriately. However, when I saw a large portion of them with their mom’s it made perfect sense. Moms with pierced noses and 4 inch stiletto heels and dresses that barely covered their cheeks don’t set much of an example for their daughters.
I told my soon to be step-daughter how proud I was of her for looking so pretty and appropriate.
