Tesco accused over padded bra for 7-year-olds

Lets face it. A padded bra is to make your boobs appear larger than they are. It doesn't really matter if they are pushing them up or pushing them out. It is very difficult
now to find bras without so much padding in them. It makes it difficult for women with large boobs to fit into them!

As far as for little girls. I think making your 7+ daughter look like her boobs are bigger than they actually are is disgusting. You are sending them out
there to get more attention then they should be getting.

exactly, i agree 110%!! they dont need the attention that (some) women get, they are kids and can't and shouldnt have to handle that.

And again your right about the women with bigger boobs, we do find it hard to get bras that fit properly!

no, holding them up makes them look bigger than they actually are, while support gives, support notonly for the boobs but the back aswell, which is what bigger children would need

 

a bra shop for a custom fitted bra for a 10 yr old. I don't even wanna know how much that is gonna cost.

Well, anyways, my daughter can pick out her own underwear next year and she's getting the Walt Disney Hannah Montana padded bra she wants.

I still don't understand why there is a big fuss about Tesco, when Wal-Mart, Target, K-mart, etc all sell them here.

 

I don't see why she would. And I've never seen or heard of a girl with barely any breasts wearing a padded bra. I think people are getting upset about something that rarely if ever happens.

 

itll cost a fair bit i dare say, i pay a lot for my bra's and i am an adult, i buy my daughters bras from john lewis where she can be measured and made to fit properly, and the measuring service and fitting service doesnt cost extra!

 

and those shops should be made to re think they're policies aswell IMO

 

Hey this sounds like deja vu

What about mini skirts? Should little girls wear mini skirts? Frilly underwear? See through tops? Little "high" heels? halter tie play suits?

 

This is starting to sound like the pagent freaks who dress their little girls up to look like they are 18 yrs old and prance them around.

Remember .JonBenet Ramsey

 

My opinion but women should not wear bras unless they need them, like say if you can hold a pencil under your boobs then you need a bra, if not don't wear it they are to small to sag.

 

Actually, its pretty much what I wore throughout my childhood. Miniskirts, frilly underwear and see through tops (since its hot in Bombay and soft cotton tops for children are generally not thick). And I loved high heels.

And no, I was never treated as anything but a tomboy.

 

My daughter wears mini skorts (not skirts), frilly underwear til they no longer came in her size, no shirts til she started developing, lots of halter tops and tube tops, and she just bought these at her church's rummage sale.

I wonder how that would go over in the corporate world.:bugeye: I don't even know how my boss or HR would approach that subject.

 

Yeah, but who looks at a seven year old and thinks bras?

Me at seven or six maybe
Are children getting breasts at seven now? Don't children have a childhood anymore?

 

That's what I've been asking. I have never seen a 7 yr old wearing a bra nor do I know of anyone who has. I think someone with a 7 yr old went to the underwear section, saw padded bras and got all outraged "How dare they try and sell this to 7 yr olds!!"
