I like to let my 7 ...It is definitely a tough call. I like to let my 7 year old daughter express herself. She loves to dress up and wear makeup and put in hair extensions (like Hannah Montana.) However, she is not allowed to wear makeup out of the house. All of our girls are reminded of what is appropriate. My husband is very good about talking to our teenage daughter about her clothing too. I have commented on other blogs in the past. I think it is sad to see so many young girls with the barely there shorts and tons of makeup. I love style, I love fashion, self expression and I love perfume! I don't thing any of this stuff is wrong if you are communicating with your kids about things like moderation and teaching self-respect...<br />Parenting is tough that's for sure! :)MFEO2009https://www.blogger.com/profile/04204650566306925124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2282770701994588596.post-55500910055418281402010-09-02T00:52:10.141-07:002010-09-02T00:52:10.141-07:00Hi Shannon, My daughter is 12 going on 13 and wan...Hi Shannon, My daughter is 12 going on 13 and wants blue hair. Last night she emailed me and told me all the things she would do for me (ie chores, etc) if I let her bleach her hair and then dye it blue, pink, purple- a different color when she wanted. We of course told her no. She ranted and raved because she couldn't get what she wants. Yikes!! I told her the subject is closed!! Sigh!! Of course she comes in an hour later..is it time to talk about it yet? I told her not till she's 16 or out of the house. We explained that we didn't want a daughter with blue hair that we wanted her to look the way she is suppose to look. We allow her to put makeup and nail polish on and other things...but blue hair? forget it. Halloween yes, for school NO.Kat's Purrfect Boutiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12581855234416469744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2282770701994588596.post-15653714172235080552010-09-01T16:58:14.114-07:002010-09-01T16:58:14.114-07:00Hey there popping over from BlogFrog.
Now I dont...Hey there popping over from BlogFrog. <br /><br />Now I dont think that these perfumes are that horrible. However I do think that clothes for girls anymore are just too much. I mean when my daughter was younger I worked very hard to make sure that she could pass the bend over test and that she still looked age appropriate.<br /><br />I am not a big fan of mini skirts, short shorts, halter tops, belly shirts, and super low rise pants on little girls yet that seems to be all that is out there.<br /><br />Maybe it is just my old mind but when they started trying to make Brittany Spears the idol for tween and teen girls were horrible people. Hell I didnt even allow her music in my home period.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05632906008003639213noreply@blogger.com
