I am probably over thinking it! Just seems an odd phrase for a kids tshirt.

I can't even see what it says tbh Blush

I think it's creepy to see it as creepy..sorry

Sallystyle · 29/01/2016 16:19

Yep, I agree. It is creepy to think this is creepy. If you see this as something sinister your have some weird thought processes.

You get some odd stuff on shirts, I am somewhat embarrassed to admit I snapped a picture of a Chinese lady who had pervert on her shirt :-/ - I can only assume she didn't know what it meant.

I'm just more bothered that the text ruins what would be lovely top!

Why did they even bother scrawling any words over it?

Exactly this. It's not the shirt, its you.

Can't say as I'd have given it a second thought tbh.

BikeRunSki · 29/01/2016 16:28

I can't read it! What does it say?

H&M slogans are quite often off the mark, I put it down to being a bit lost in translation and them bit s bit daft.

crookedhooker · 29/01/2016 16:29

I want an adult size one. I've seen far worse tbh.

WorraLiberty · 29/01/2016 16:35

For those who can't read it, it just says 'Lets run away'.

I could sit her until Easter and still not find anything wrong with it Confused

What I want to know is why you have to pay more if you want tops or tshirts without any slogans.

SouthernShepherdess · 29/01/2016 16:46

Bloody stupid IMO! Kids can take these things seriously. Lost the plot!

ZiggyFartdust · 29/01/2016 16:49

Honey, if your kids are going to run away from home because they read this t-shirt, you've got way bigger problems. And its still not the shirts fault.

Goingtobeawesome · 29/01/2016 16:50

Thanks Worra. I'm a bit Confused too.

It's a bit pathetic rather than sinister. I've seen worse.

ClaudiaApfelstrudel · 29/01/2016 16:52

seems very inappropriate for a child

Killairno · 29/01/2016 16:54

Ah, I'd see it in the sense of a bit of a childhood adventure type of running away (and back by teatime) rather than anything else. That said, I don't like slogans and sayings on kids' clothing in general - putting words in their mouths, as it were, and usually stupid or obnoxious words!

(confession - I did buy DS a "I feel a disturbance in the force" top but only because it was in a two pack with a storm trooper one)

JeanGenie23 · 29/01/2016 16:54

When I was a slightly rebellious teenager I brought a Tshirt that said Jesus is my Homeboy, my rather religious granny nearly had a fit Grin

I think slogan tshirts are trashy and jokey and should be taken as such. I wouldn't wear slogan tops now so wouldn't but them for my daughter either

Stormtreader · 29/01/2016 16:57

It makes me think of when kids seem to plot to run in opposite directions so you cant chase both at once Grin Seems fine to me.

Funandgamesandfun · 29/01/2016 17:01

doesn't bother me, I wouldn't have even registered

Funandgamesandfun · 29/01/2016 17:03

I think the Wifi one is funny, dd (9) and I had a good giggle about it in H&M and I said I would buy it for her next time I go in. Have I done something terrible?

TattyDevine · 29/01/2016 17:08

Meh...

MistressMerryWeather · 29/01/2016 17:10

I am now warbling Run Away by The Corrs, much to my toddlers annoyance.

'Cuz I-eeee-ah-ah-ah am falling in love-o-wuv-o-wuv...'

There's absolutely nothing wrong with the T-shirt.
