4. Maybe Tom has Child Pageant aspirations for her?
That get up is pretty bad. What are they thinking.

8. Because some women are idiots and will purchase them for their children?
I wish more women were concerned with their wallets than their looks.

We would be much further by now if that were the case.

29. It's part of the "trashy chic" style that is so popular with young moms
They want to dress their daughters like Paris Hilton.

47. I watch the commercials on Nick Jr and the Disney Channel while
the kids are watching things like Kai Lan etc. I wonder what kind of propaganda they are pushing on these "teen" star shows and how much the kids are falling for it. I know that my great granddaughter is into some of it. I do not trust what they are doing with our children today. I am interested in what younger DUers are thinking about these shows? Might help grandma get over her paranoia.

6. Because Suri's mother and father are shallow fucks?
It's disgusting.

This is also not the first time she has been wearing heels.

children's dance shoes or something - I can't believe I know that.

9. I think those were another pair of shoes. Suri had a pair of favorite
shoes that she wore often, but they were satin flats.

Suri has also been photographed with red mid heel pumps and other heeled shoes.

And, I too can NOT believe I know any of this.

Or maybe a step down from that: a beauty pageant contestant and a half-term governor.

Edited on Fri Dec-11-09 06:06 PM by benEzra
if it were real, his parents wouldn't be allowed to own it without a BATFE Form 4, either (rifles and carbines with barrels that short are as tightly controlled in this country as howitzers).

15. Do we really need to ask?
I think the answer is obvious.

Because the parents are idiots.

18. She is probably the most photographed child in the world and her
parents obviously adore her and may over-indulge her somewhat in her fashion choices. I wish I had been so lucky.

I'm surprised that her parents allow her to be photographed so much.

20. I wore kiddie heels when I played dress up
Edited on Fri Dec-11-09 05:46 PM by DoBotherMe
as a little girl. All the mothers in the neighborhood bought us little girls "dress up" kits from the dime store. Some of the kits even had clear slides with wedge heels. There are pictures of me wearing a feather boa from the kit to a family reunion, and I carried my Thumbelina everywhere. IMO it's just the way some little girls play. Dana ; )

28. I did too
and this was back in the late 50s.

They were clear plastic with sparkly stuff embedded in them.


I actually hated them. I was more into playing trucks and cars with the neighborhood boys...

43. Yes, and my mother's heels also.
I think it's a mistake to make too much too soon. She's just a little thing and only beginning to find her own way.

45. So did I
they were made for kids to wear for "dress-up". I wanted a pair for Christmas and I got them, they were gold sparkly plastic with black elastic straps. :-) Before I got them I would wear my mother's.

50. I saw a close-up of the pink heels yesterday.
They look like they're made of soft, pliable rubber, probably part of a dress-up kit for a little girl.

21. Because Suri is the daughter of Scientologists. And they think children are...
Merely "Thetans in small bodies"

That's what the COS teaches

That's why their schools are so bad that celebrities don't send their kids there...

34. Maybe it's because he's havign a contest with Billy Cyrus; how young do they tart up their girls?
They're obviously pimping their girls in front of the media... one day they'll wonder why they don't have private lives. (uh, isn't that because you thrust your walking ego-projections into the media 24/7? Duh...)

I didn't even need to find the name to know it was Tom Cruise's daughter, named after his home city:

Syracuse

Suri

Suri Cruise

With shortened achilles tendons and calf muscles, poor posture, hammertoes and bunions?

when everyone else around seems to be wearing warmer, more fall-ish clothing?

52. Dress up???
I know they sell many kiddie heels, etc. Of course it should be just for around the house, IMO, but I am not going to judge. And I think Tom Cruise is a nut.
