[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with your friend. [b]Native American clothing is not a "costume."[/b] Sometimes it's entirely ok to tell kids no, and better yet, explain why.[/quote]

Why not?

Vikings are a costume. http://www.halloweencostumes.com/mens-adult-viking-costume.html

Germans are a costume. http://www.halloweencostumes.com/traditional-german-costume.html?utm_source=googleps&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=PLA-All&gclid=CMOJq5vF77kCFdGd4Aodvi0Ahg

Geishas are a costume. http://www.halloweencostumes.com/child-asian-princess-costume.html

Irish are a costume. http://www.halloweencostumes.com/lil-leprechaun-costume.html

Scottish are a costume. http://www.halloweencostumes.com/sexy-scottish-costume.html

Italians are a costume. http://www.halloweencostumes.com/guido-costume-kit.html

Indians are a costume. http://www.halloweencostumes.com/womens-bollywood-beauty-costume.html

Why can't American Indians (please -- don't use that offensive term "Native Americans" -- I was born here. I am a Native American. That is an offensive and outdated term, sort of like calling a black person a negro) be a costume? What's offensive about this? Why is this offensive when the other examples are not? [/quote]
