[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi! Op here. Thanks for your opinions. This was actually not my daughter, just a schoolmate. I was as appalled as some of you are, but wanted to see if I was blowing it out of proportion (in my mind). I still think it was very inappropriate and trivialized the little girl. Can't name the school, sorry. Not a public school though, so rest easy public school parents. [/quote] Doesn't just trivialize the little girl who won the fashionista award, but trivializes ALL girls by elevating something of value that is really shallow -- how one looks -- and probably acquires money to achieve (to buy nice clothes). I'm appalled at how sexist this award is and that it was given out at the 1st grade level. Just goes to show how girls/women are steered to focus on their appearance from a very early age. So sad. Definitely worth bringing to the attention of the principal.[/quote]
