American Brand ?? Says it all really !! Probably promoted by & aimed at, the same brand of sick, sad parents who insist on shoving their tiny children into the disgusting world of "Pageants". These sickening displays were once confined to those brainless twats on the other side of the Atlantic, but are becoming, sadly, more prevalent over here !!  >:( >:( >:( >:(

It seems to me to be very difficult to differentiate between the sexualisation of young children (as with the bras for 4 yr olds) and the world as it used to be when every little girl used to love to dress up in mums clothes and high heels, with a smear of red lipstick (or a red smartie).  I have no problem with the dressing-up issue, but bras for 4 year olds is outrageous.

I really think there is a big difference in dressing up in Mum's clothes to play and  letting little girls wear things like Playboy logos as Menthol mentioned.   I also find the dancing or "Twerking" offensive and embarrassing and am horrified if my grand-daughters start innocently copying from the TV. 

Some parents dress their girls in such a way that they look like little tarts…..who do they think they are impressing or attracting attention from?!?

Update to this story.  After being contacted by the Daily Record, the bras have all been withdrawn from sale.
This is the article in the newspaper (online version) today.   A great result.  Leah and I are pleased it has been taken off the shelves of 180 shops.

Good for you Jacqui (I also liked the colour of the nail polish!)
