Miley Cyrus' 9 year old sister is launching a lingerie line for kids.  Pedo Bear approves.

that is just wrong

On so many levels.

 

And they wonder why there is child abuse. 

When it comes out that Billy Ray Cyrus was doing a John Phillips nobody better be surprised.  I'm guessing that this is because Miley is getting too old now.

I actually think the outfits are cute. My 3 year old would love wearing that stuff. It does not look particulalry inappropriate to me (except maybe the marketing). I mean she often runs around nude at home, some chaste underwear is not going to hurt her.

If you just called it designer underwear for kids perhaps it would be more palatable.

Odd, but I find thongs and push-up bras for little girls to be a bit much.  Nudity is something very different from provocative clothing.  As anyone who has ever gone to a nude beach or a nudist camp knows.  But I'm sure they have some interest in marketing to the pedophile market, since this is something they can get away with. This stuff is literally a child molester's dream come true, because no longer do they have to project sexuality on an innocent child, it's already been done for them by the parents who let them wear this trash.

push-up bras for little girls

I didn't know that was possible.

Since Pedo Bear and I never seem to see eye-to-eye, I think this is awful on many different levels.

When my daughter was about 8 she wanted to use makeup.  I refused to allow it and told her that she gets to be an adult a long time and a kid for only a short time and just enjoy being a kid because she'll never get the chance again.  She eventually bought that argument.

If you push your daughter into looking sexy at 5, don't be surprised if she announces she's pregnant when she's 12.  JMHO

I did not see the push up bras or thongs  , 

I just saw the frilly pink body suit things and the tutu. They seemed ok to me.

I'm a bit more relaxed about things like makeup though. My 3 year old likes it cause she loves to paint on her face and body and look like her daddy. I see that as harmless, on par with helping me lay bricks.

I think teens should be free to express their sexuality as long as they do it in a safe way. They do become very much sexually capable beings after puberty, The whole physically capable but not mentally responsible is the main issue I think. If my daughter at 12 wanted to dress slutty they can go for it, they just won't be going out looking like that.

I agree though, kids should be able to enjoy being kid. I think you need to be clear about the division between play vs actually wanting to look 'sexually attractive' at a young age. The former is ok, the later not so much. For my daughter makeup is just play.

edits: oops, I'm not sure I'm quite sounding right here....I think I have it now. I don't want to sound dodge. I'm not in any way condoning the sexualisation of chilldren.

Are you freaking kidding me??

PFfff... There's nothing wrong with using makeup. Thats a quantum leap from wearing  thongs/extremely skimpy without other clothing above it... O_O

I'd be fine with my kid expressing themself any way they wanted, but I'd talk to her about it, and I'd also expect that the get up was SAFE For her. If you are that age, want make up, but are willing to wear a hoodie or t shirt instead of a "Look at my 9 year old tits" top, I'd be fine with the makeup...

I mean I might draw lines a bit more if I knew what parenting was like for a while.

But probably not too deeply.

er.... I don't even know where to start with this one...

Just....no. Wrong.

QuoteWe've gotta say we're with Miley on this one. It's a fact of life that teenage girls grow boobs, it's just that usually they don't have the whole world watching and speculating about their origin.

We also doubt very much that Miley's parents would have let her get cosmetic surgery at the ripe old age of 16!

I followed a couple links in that article and came across this, a discussion about the girls hooters. The whole thing kind of reminds me of a twisted episode of South Park.

Yeah, except it not Miley doing it, it's her 9 year old sister.

Oh god ew. This is just so wrong on so many levels. Pedobear may approve but I definitely do not! Blegh! Kids and lingerie should definitely not be in the same sentence as one another! Also: I think that girl needs some therapy... Someone so young should not be so sexualized.

Discusting!!!

I think I just died a little inside... wow... sexualizing someone so young is so very very wrong. Eeww.
