1. Obviously .. the 'designer' is completely detached from the REALITY of Toddlerhood .. which is running about .. enjoying playtime .. growing and living lives ..
2. BONES in toddlers are definitely in the formative stages .. these HEELS .. even in adulthood .. are a strain on one's back and legs .. (I don't even wear heels .. and I'm in my elder years .. they are far too painful indeed)
Just INSANE ..
TODDLERS do not give one bit of CARE about 'sophistication' ..
and are more interested in playing with the BOX ..
taking the rhinestones out to glue onto cards for grandparents and parents ..
having FUN playing ..
than about how one 'looks' ..
(trust me .. there's no toddler I know that would even TOLERATE these on them .. )
Just wondering .. is this pandering to the "TODDLERS and Tiaras" crowd?
(Shudder)

These fashionable wedge heels look perfect for summer. Only problem is, they’re for toddlers. Yes, that's right: Michael Kors has unveiled the Keely Wedge in sizes 1-5 Youth. You no longer have to wait for your teen years to be stylish.
The description for the heels read: “Geometric cutouts and shimmering rhinestone studs combine to offer the fashion forward Keely wedge from KORS Michael Kors Kids. This spunky sandal sports a zip heel for easy dressing, and elasticized straps for ultimate comfort. A covered wedge heel adds chic sophistication.”
Sophistication? For an eight-year-old? Parenting blog Babble compares them to “stripper shoes,” but we think they are going a bit too far. These shoes are pretty cute, and could even work for a tween. But for little girls, they are a bit ridiculous. What do you think?

For the first 15 years or so, the bones are growing and are susceptable to sudden and prolonged changes in posture that alter the natural position of the bones in the feet, hips, and spine, all the way to the head. In high heels, those muscles that support the body, and although they may look great, or even spectacular in the right clothes, they will not get the proper stretch in our daily lives. This will impede their own physical developement and abilities. If they were to work out to adjust for the changes that is one thing, but very few teens will put their health before their relationships and teens being and growing into themselves.
The ONLY practical use of high heels with children is when early gradeschool girls do dressup to look like Mommy. That is one time that spectacular tops itself! Anyone who has had a daughter and even a granddaughter, as I have, can truly love every seconds of it.
they will stop and enjoy being a kid when you want them to work, and be responsible.
Parents stop making your kids be 18, when they are only 8, let them be kids.
^Those are just too much^
^Those too me are okay^
I could even see wearing
^Those FOR Weddings or something like that ONLY
BUT like I said I think that they are 'BETTER' then the other pairs Not saying that children should wear them And if your going too let your child wear heals (which I wouldn't ever let my child wear heals, I don't even wear heals) then the last pair would be better for certain occasions, In my opinion.
It could cause early foot pain/problems.
Miley Cyrus. Daddy was so proud of his little girl on the stripper pole at the teen choice awards he mouths the words "sixteen years old." He could have just as easy added "and I'm hittin' that!)
You know you're thinking it, so don't yell at me for saying it.
