To not get DD a crop top?

[Shruce]

DD wants this branded crop top. She's 10. AIBU to say no?

Don't think its very skimpy at all - pick your battles I think

I think I know where you're coming from OP but also at that age I don't think there's necessarily anything ominous about her wanting to show her belly. I was shopping today and with it being so warm I saw so many young teen girls in similar tops. She's probably just wanting to feel fashionable?

YABU.

I don't think that's a crop top at all - it's just a shorter than usual top. I take crop tops to mean the ones that come between the belly button and the breasts.

My 10yo is also obsessed with crop tops and wants to show her stomach - I would happily buy that one for her.

What's wrong with her stomach? Why are you insisting that it should be covered up? Is it something she should be ashamed or embarrassed about?
It's just a tummy. Wowzers.

It’s not as bad as I expected.

It’s pretty. Nice top. No problem with that at all.

I thought it was going to be really really short or something. It barely shows any stomach!

I'm not a fan of the really cropped tops they all seem to like, but this one in the link is fine IMO.

No I wouldn't either OP. I just don't see the necessity of it. We wear clothes mainly for practical reasons don't we - warmth, protection, why do stomachs on boys or girls need to be out there? When she's older, fine, she decides, but I don't want my young daughter wearing heavily gendered clothes like that.

What on Earth is wrong with that I thought you meant an actual cropped top, the sort you wear before you need a bra. It's just a short t shirt.

My 10 year old wears them along with all the other 10 year old girls around here.

Nothing wrong with that top for a ten year old.

That top is fine! Doesn't show much tummy.

Looks like what I see 90% of girls aged 10-16 wearing - with high waisted skinny jeans and white trainers.

There’s nothing wrong with that top, it’s not skimpy at all.

Absolutely clothes are mainly practical but fashion is fun too! They're kids!

How did the first few posters manage to comment without a link?!

It’s not as bad as I imagined but it’s nearly winter! Maybe next year.

Oh seeing the picture I don't think that top is too cropped actually. I thought you meant as in a sports bra short type of crop. (That's the type my 10yo SD wears)

I'm not getting the issue actually.
What's the problem with showing belly?

YANBU I hate them. DD’s friend sometimes wears them - they’re 6

Going to go against the grain, I don't see what's wrong with this. I remember crop tops the first time round, I was desperate to wear one and was always rolling up my top. I think this particular one is subtle and they are very fashionable at the moment, she'll probably wear it with high waisted jeans as those are in fashion too -and not the Britney Spear'sesque low rise jeans I was so desperate to pair my crop top with- I think it's alright.

Oops, strike through fail there - but you catch my drift!

I think it’s fine.

I wouldn’t have an issue with that at all, I was imagining a bra type crop top! Ithink it’s fine, not inappropriate at all!
