Dear Valeria, I am writing to tell her something that I confess to her, if she didn’t really upset me, she made me remain bad enough. Every now and then I go to find my little granddaughter, Giulia, who this year finished elementary school. She is a very good girl at school and affectionate, I love her as a daughter. I was struck by seeing his friends and schoolmates, eleven years old, all dressed as “Lolite”. In short, apparently much larger than their age. The girls, you know, tend to grow well before the boys, but don’t it seem that eleven years are very few to have certain winking attitudes? Sin is in the look at, someone supports. But from clothing to make -up, from looks to early sexualization, I think is quite short. Beyond the risks of the possible attackers, I came to think that, by supporting this earliness, something that will no longer return too soon: the light -heartedness of childhood will be removed too soon. I am very curious to know what his opinion is about it. With esteem.

Dear Edoardo, I can only agree with her. Seeing a little girl monkey a woman is sad as well as vaguely impressive. But probably, behind the attitude, there is much less malice than we imagine. As I have already found myself responding on more than one occasion, what always leaves me perplexed is how little now, we parents, we can also affect this aspect of children. If I succeeded, my son would not take around how he carries: every time my eye falls (he falls because I always make sure to distract him as quickly as possible) on that absurd haircut that would also mortify Alain Delon or on those black outfits that seem to come out of a shopping center regardless of where they are purchased or on those accessories that magically manage to worsen everything, I don’t know if I am more amazed. predictive. Scompit because, although I am not ina de la Fressange, I can guarantee that her non -taste has not taken it from me (nor from anyone else at home). I disheartened because I understand that he cannot make him think.
And I don’t say that my model is the best exportable (they are not even the US …), but it is certainly better than that of my son at the moment. Here, I fear that for the Lolite it is worth the same as for him. And for their mothers the same as for me.
