"Sexualised Kids"


The story evolves around the issue that children's clothes underwear and other accessories are getting too sexualised. Which too some extent i agree with, retailers have been caught selling padded bras and bikinis for 8 year old's? WHAT! Why should 8 year old's even care at this point? they barely understand there own body at this age.


"Retail Week" Website

Also states how a new law is being launched to see if guidelines need to be put in place for retailers so that the production of sexual slogan t-shirts, fancy dress kits such as lap dancing, padded bra's/sexual underwear and heels are not being sold to small children not even in their teens.

Honestly, no wonder girls are growing up with no self confidence. Now anyone may say that parents wrap their children up to much which in some aspects i agree with, but when i was a child it was stupid dresses with thick tights then as i get older the more clothes i wore and the less skin i showed! Even music videos today are so sexualised, there's an age rating on films so shouldn't there be on music videos too? When i was young it was all about "STEPS" and "S CLUB 7" aha, not Rihanna's S&M.
