Boys wering camoflaje clothes

All my 3 lads have got clothes that are camoflaje materiel. You know, likes wot soldurs were. some silly bint at toddlers the other day siad she thught it was inappripriate and sending out the rong messege and stuff like that?!?! you lot seem sensibel and nice and i knows you will say what you tink so wot is youre opinion on boys wering camoflaje?

I think she's talking nonsense. Both my boys have some camouflage clothes. It really suits my younger son's olive skin and hazel eyes so I love to dress him in it. And I'm a very peace-loving person!

My girls wear camoflaje. Not sure what that woman would make of that then.

It's fine IMO.. my daughter wears camoflage stuff at least once a week...



Lal has a couple of camo nappies (what? this is me talking.. what else did you expect?) and a pair of trousers that are still too long...
I don't deck him out with a matching AK47, but G can strip, clean and reassemble one..

they banned camoflage at my boys Alistairs and Pheonix's school because it glamerises violence and war.
pink camoflage for girls is just stupid

I hope they don't ban it in my son's school. I've bought him a lovely coat for next winter in the M&S sale and it's camouflage. It's lovely and was a real bargain. It doesn't glamourise violence and war - it's a coat FFS!

WTF???????

Who comes up with this crap? Grrrr.

My daughter has had camouflage trousers (well the Next sort of girly version of it at any rate!) but I don't see the problem with camo on anybody. I don't think it glamourises anything. IMO - if anything - it is showing support for our troops!

Absolute rubbish. Wearing camouflage clothes is no more glamourising war than putting a boy in pink is going to make him gay, which is another absolutely ridiculous claim I've heard made these days.

I don't have a problem with it. Rather that than a slogan t-shirt with something offensive on it! I don't wear it myself and have never bought it for my dd, but that's because I don't like it, not because I think it glamorises violence or war.

I don't think these days camo designs are so much about the military any more - it is just a pattern and design like anything else. I actually have a pair of toddler camo trousers for dd1 and she looks mega cute in them. I have no idea why someone would think it was inappropriate - as another poster said it is much nicer than offensive slogan t-shirts.
Of course for some people the design is linked to the forces but to say it galmourises war is a very strange outlook imo.
