[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t have girls, but I’m always mildly shocked when elementary school lets out and I see the 3rd-5th graders come out with their crop tops, short shorts, cell phones, and giant Stanley cups. I know mom is choosing and buying a lot of this stuff and I don’t get it at all. [/quote]

And on the other end of the spectrum, I find it intensely gross that grown women are judging kids on the lengths of their shirts and shorts. Better get the misogyny started early! Never too soon to start oversexualizing kids! [/quote]

Dp.  Children should dress like children.  Nine and ten year olds have no business wearing makeup and crop tops. [/quote]

This is why schools with uniforms are so great. No need to worry about this. No crop tops or short shorts allowed. No makeup either. I don't let my 4th grader use text so it is disabled on her iPad. There are a lot of parental controls limiting what she has on her iPad. Parenting a 4th grade girl isn't easy but I'm glad some of the potential disagreements don't happen because of school rules. The girls still have plenty of relational problems to deal with, and that's enough.[/quote]
