Too young to dress old?

I was just listening to Paul O'Grady and Joan Collins mentioned that children dress too old for their age. She mentioned about Tom Cruise's daughter Suri wears high heels. I think that when little girls are young they should be dressed as little girls. Are we dressing our children too old for their ages? Should they wear little bra tops, make up, high heels and provocative t-shirts?

I know I sound old fashioned but I believe children should be allowed to be children while they can as when they grow up they certainly will want to be children again to change a lot of their decisions. Often little girls of around 7 or 9 like to wear make up but should they be doing this. When you are young you often have beautiful, perfect and soft skin so why want to change that.

These days with the Internet and all of the media around you here so much about Paedophiles as years ago it was no doubt hidden behind closed doors but with the Internet it is more commonly known and an easier way of them passing images to each other. If they see a little girl with what looks like a bra top, short skirt and tight t-shirt with a message like porn star on as well as high heels and make up on will this encourage a paedophile? Will they take more interest in the child or will they just ignore it?

I really think that mum's should not be pushed into allowing their daughter's to wear clothing that could give them unwanted attention from the wrong type of people or even unknowingly put them in danger.

What might seem innocent to a child and even to a mum night not be to someone else that could be a danger. I would love to hear everyone's thoughts and comments on this as it is a debate that should maybe be out in the open!
