You don’t like them, don’t buy the damn things

Could be some unenlightened mothers think they’re cute.

“The Children's Place's latest T-shirt line put the clothing retailer in an uncomfortable place: in the crossfire of parental outrage.

“The retailer sparked anger for girls' T-shirts like one that says ‘Born to wear diamonds’ and another depicting a checklist under the phrase ‘My best subjects.’ While subjects such as ‘shopping’ and ‘dancing’ are checked off, ‘math’ is left unchecked, with the added explanation ‘Well, nobody's perfect.’

“That made some parents hopping mad, and some filled The Children's Place's Facebook page with angry messages. Some vowed to stop shopping at the retailer.

"’As an environmental scientist, I just can't justify endorsing your business,’ one woman wrote. ‘The “right thing” to teach our children is to ignore degrading propaganda, and present yourself in a positive way.’"

(Who gives a rat’s hiney that “one woman” is “an environmental scientist”? What does environmental science have to do with “Born to wear diamonds”? What is an environmental scientist, anyway?

(Unwad your knickers, dudettes. Remember the importance of diversity. Remember, too, that some girls are born to wear diamonds. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have dozens of pictures in yearbooks, and they wouldn’t be the ones in cheerleader skirts.

(And, Envirnmental Scientist, you have a tense error -- "our children" cannot be a "yourself.")
