We’re FOR choice, but not for this – why? Children’s feet are not meant to wear heels, wedges or platforms! All on sale in the F&F school range.
Heels can cause PERMANENT damage to feet, ligaments and posture… so it’s not prudish to say “I’m not ok with this.” When parents see big brands selling this it’s easy to normalise, it’s easy to think “it must be ok…”
Play shoes, occassionwear – becoming more acceptable – but school shoes? No. Tesco F&F could you imagine a boy wearing these? Yet acceptable for girls… please help END this – share if you agree, and help us raise awareness on this issue.
Well, little girls have to be trained to wear high heels, or else they might resist. And after all it’s not as if they need to run around and be active.
I honestly can’t tell: is that enough heel to be a problem? I wore cowboy boots for most of my childhood that, to my eye, had a similar heel.
Or is the real concern that these are a gateway to even higher heels, etc., as suggested by your comment about “training” them?
Definitely. That’s more than enough heel to be a problem.
