        I work in education. It is awful to see elementary age girls with shorts that are more akin to underwear than shorts. Very inappropriate

        Designers need to rethink clothing styles for young girls.

        As long as the girls are not showing ass cheeks at a young age it’s ok. Let them dress how they want. As long as they respect themselves.

        *rubs temples* the length of your kids shorts would be fine if yall stopped sexualizing young girls. It's creepy and gross.

        Don't buy them for your daughters. Do not allow them to wear them. Ground your daughter for 2+ was if you catch her in a pair. Simple.

        Umm forget your parental BS. I know a lot of ladies who would like quality shorts that cover their behinds and don't make their thighs rub.

        I have a 5'7", 13 y/o daughter. She wears mens/boys soccer or golf shorts. Girls/womens are just too short. Been doing this for years.

        How about we pair articles like this with ones that speak about how important it is that we stop sexualizing children
