Anyone else laughing over how these people just stole their design straight from Miss Piggy?

I agree with Mags - the best time to embarrass the hell out of your kid is before her memory starts working. After age 2 or 3, that's when the permanent scarring kicks in.

Is it just me, or did anyone else get a sudden image of Miss Piggy when they looked at that first picture? Can it, frog! Hai-yah!

I should add that my mother saw this and said those shoes were "absolutely disgusting". Apparently, I am a bad parent. Oh well.

I have a daughter and I think these are funny. I would never put them on a toddler or older child, but when they're infants embarrassing outfits are all fair-game. Seriously, that's part of the fun of parenting.

Damn! Why couldn't I come up with such a great idea like that? Some people are just moving society along at such a rapid pace that it is really hard to keep up with all these innovations. What next... wireless handheld phones, automatic transmissions in cars?

How about just binding their feet to make them smaller and more attractive.

How about little baby garters?

If one doesn't start dressing your little girl like a prostitute at an early age, she's going to be severely disadvantaged when it comes to getting pregnant as a teen.

I am strongly in favor of these shoes.
