AIBU to tell my 12 year old DD that she can't wear these?

[JossWhedonIsAGenius]

Boots

[HalfBloodPrincess]

What are your reasons for not wanting her to wear them?

[DaanSaaf]

Why not?

[Mrskeats]

Agreed. Too grown up.

[HighwayDragon1]

£170? To look like a stripper? I don't think so!

[ThePricklySheep]

I’d say far too high a heel.

[SleepyMcEdie]

Why not? They are shoes.

[TulipsInBloom1]

How does she have them to wear? Or do you mean you wont buy her them?

[Justnoclue]

I see nothing wrong with these. DD is 12 and has similar ankle version.

[ScarlettDarling]

They're far too high for a child. I'd not let my 11 year old wear anything like that, she'd break her neck.

[Aprilshowersnowastorm]

My dd's ankles would prob go over and snap!

[DaanSaaf]

A stripper?

[BananaBonanza]

Too high. Long term foot and ankle difficulties

[LatteLover12]

YANBU

[RoboticMary]

Oh no, too high a heel. Won’t be good for her feet!

I started wearing heels far too young. Ended up with hammertoes

[Justnoclue]

Although I’d never pay that much for boots unless they did the walking for me and gave me a foot rub while they were at it

[LagerthaTheShieldMaiden]

They are very adult, that can't be denied. What is she planning to wear with them?

[Fannybaws52]

There is nothing wrong with them. They aren't sexualized. Pick your battles. You may find they are so annoying and clunky she chooses not to wear them again.

[WhenEnoughIsEnough]

If she doesn't already have them I wouldn't buy the I have a pair of Timberlake ankle boots with a heel and I can honestly day they are the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever worn. Obviously just my opinion.

[JensenElephant]

Is she a goth? or a harry potter fan?

[AsAProfessionalFekko]

Too high. She would look odd - assuming she is average 12 year old sized.

[JensenElephant]

A stripper?

they are very can can

[Johndoe10]

Nope. They are too high. What purpose would they have?

[WhenEnoughIsEnough]

Oh my gosh so my many typos in my response! Sorry

[LoveAGoodChat]

Ok they would be ok with leggings/leggings/jeans....but a bit too grown up for her age if she wanted to wear them with a mini skirt, short dress or hot pants

[Polly99]

Too high for a 12 year old. Her bones are still growing and hardening and shouldn’t really be in heels. Plus, £170 for boots for a child who may outgrow them anytime?
