Sugar And Spice...

...and bras and lip gloss??

What are we doing to little girls nowadays? That is a question many of us have been asking for a while now. As the father of three of these beautiful creatures, I can tell you that things are a-changin'... and it is not for the better.

Honestly, I think that most parents are blissfully ignorant of it. There are lots of people who are letting/encouraging their daughters to be WAY more than they should be at very tender ages.

Here's a piece discussing this tragedy (and make no mistake, it is a tragedy) in detail. Please read it and consider it.

This has been going on for a while now. About five years ago I was walking through a department store, and passed through the children's pajamas section. Stuff sized for five or six year old girls was, quite literally, lingere with fuzzy sleeves sewn on. The store staff didn't seem to think this was a problem, by which I mean the three staffers I spoke to, including the store manager, were unable to understand why I found this upsetting. WTF?!?!?
