Beyonce’s sexy little girls ad
ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH
On the heels of the Miley Cyrus controversy, singer Beyoncé’s Knowles is promoting her fashion collection, House of Deréon, with an ad taking prosti-tot fashions to a new ridiculous level.
The little girls, showing off red pumps, made-up faces and ridiculous clothing, look like they are dressed for Halloween rather than kindergarten.
But, as much media “outrage” and parental concern these types of incidents create, companies wouldn’t make these clothes unless someone (parents!) were buying them. Why can’t 5-year old girls dress like innocent kids anymore? And, if you dress your child like this, please explain why…

When she was 5, I bought my daughter’s clothes, and she was a cute little girl. When she was 15, she picked her own clothes, but my money meant my veto rights. When she was 18, she bought clothes with her own money, but my house meant my rules, and the off-color t-shirt she bought was demoted to sleep shirt. My now 20-year old daughter occasionally wears her skirt a bit shorter than her father would like, but compared to many young women her age, shows minimal skin.
The media can do what they want. I control what I purchase and hence what my children wear, eat, play with, and watch on telivision and at the movies, at least until a certain age. Be a parent!
