What brought this to mind this morning? Well, here I am, sitting in Local Friendly Coffeeshop, enjoying a mug of the good stuff, and what do I see? A friend's daughter, sporting a hair style that would be far more appropriate on a 20-something (or maybe a 40-something trying to pass for under-30) and an outfit that screams "jail bait" loud and clear. She's no older than 12, maybe 13. Her mother dresses conservatively, so it's not like mom's a bad role model, walking around looking like a hooker!
WTF is with all these Lolitas? And with the parents who not only allow, but seem to actively encourage, their young daughters to dress like a sex crime looking for a place to happen? I've seen babies and toddler sporting apparel emblazoned with the word sexy -- and I know damned well that the kids didn't buy that clothing for themselves. Now, anyone who knows me knows I'm no prude, but I'm sorry, sexy is just not a word that should ever be associated with someone that young!

Prosti-tots.
And it's not just the word "sexy". It's ANY word written across a pre-teens butt. None of that here. None. She won't be covered from ankle to neck. But her booty won't be hanging out either.
You sound like a pretty reasonable mom. I wouldn't let my guys walk around with their pants slid down to crotch level, either. I see kids that way out in public, and I always want to go over and yank 'em back up. They may think they're advertising their youthful virility or something, but what they're really telling us is that they have two heads and NO brain....
