    I don't get it...what am I missing?

    The saying. Its in the kid's sizes like 1.5 year olds to 10 year olds. I guess I can't think of anything innocent for this to be suggesting.

    I looked at it, scrolled down, thought about it and then scrolled back up. It doesn't look inappropriate, but like I said I feel like it's kind of suggestive, no? I wouldn't want dd wearing it. I feel like it sends the wrong message. Is it me? I couldn't decide so of course I had to post it here.

    It's not overtly inappropriate but it still makes me raise an eyebrow.

    ok I'm glad I'm not the only one.

    Am I the only one that thinks it is cute and would be ok with it? Jo is already into mischief and raising hell like trying to explore the toilet bowl.... I can only imagine what she will do when left unsupervised.....

    I don't think you're the only one. Some of the other ladies said they don't see a problem with it. I was having a conversation earlier with someone about the way clothing is cut now and how it seems even younger clothing is more grown looking (shorter, cut outs, etc.) And I guess in that mindset I felt this is one of those. However, maybe if I hadn't just had that conversation, I might have seen the shirt a little more innocent. Either way, I don't think I'd allow dd to wear it.

    I don't see it as blatantly inappropriate, but if I had a girl, she wouldn't be wearing it.

    So wait, would you raise an eyebrow if a boy wore it?

    I would.  I just think it doesn't send the right message.

    I wouldn't buy it because I think it's ugly; not that it's suggestive.
    Well, this too.  LOL

    I would definitely not let my child wear that. The shirt tells strangers "I keep secrets from my parents" and secret-keeping is exactly the kind of behavior a sexual predator looks for. Even if I weren't worried about sexual abuse, that is still not the message I want my child/family communicating to the public.
    Yes, I agree.  It's saying I do something I shouldn't do and my parents don't know about it.

    This exactly. Not even the sexual predators part. Just the secret keeping. Allowing a child to wear that sends the message to the child that secret keeping is okay.

    This has had this song stuck in my head for days now. I remember guys used to sing/beat box it in high school. Haha https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EVjV6U6xXxU
    I clicked on this and listened to it. It was a mistake. Now it is stuck in my head also
