When my daughter made the transition from toddler sizes to girls, I got a shock. Most of it was “slutwear”; shirts and skirts too short, hot pants, low-cut tops, defiant phrases, etc. I had to look far and wide for appropriate clothing that fit properly. I resorted to the Lands End catalog a LOT, as well as my sewing machine.

That was 12 years ago. I know it’s gotten worse over the years. Even boys clothing has taken a turn towards “thugwear.”

My kids always wanted me to buy them new pants with holes in them.
I said if you want them you pay for them but I throw stuff like that away and buy new whole jeans

This bimbo, Rihanna, is far from a role model for the youth.

What is really disgusting is when the daugther and the mother are wearing the same clothes!

I am seeing more and more of this.

I think our problem is no one wants to be the grown up anymore.

A line needs to be drawn, but not by Abercrombie. Not by Britney Spears. And not by these little girls who don't know better and desperately need their parents to be parents and not 40-year-old BFFs.

Yep.

Excellent article. We’ve turned an entire generation of girls into plumbers with the low rise jeans thing. (just say no to crack)

This article is using two rappers as examples. How appropriate.

I have 3 daughthers, the oldest is 9. Regarding clothes, I resigned myself some time ago that they’ll all hate me when they’re teenagers. LOL. Ah well, life as Mom.

Could this be a homeschooling ping?

Do you think the choices children make regarding their clothing is influence by the clique culture found in our prison-like schools? ()

Personally, I had **no** conflicts with how my homeschooled girls and son dressed. I can not remember a single time when I had to correct them concerning their clothing choices. They bought nearly all of their day to day clothing from the local Goodwill. The girls sewed their own Sunday things, and my son wore a white shirt tie, sweater, and dark dress pants to church.

“Tramps” is not politically correct. Don’t use “hobo” or “bum”. They are “The Address-Challenged”.
