I saw some of that stuff in hot topic, and the ss doesnt look anything like they did when I was a child , and the carebears dont either.. was a little disapointed when I got the one from spencers........
Nope, my daughter is only 13 (almost 14) and is an honor student, cheerleader, vollyeball and tennis player, altar server and all around good kid (thank goodness!!) but her school has a group of "goth" or alternative people who wear this stuff and that is how she found out about it. Apparently they must have older siblings or something to know about things at such an age. They also discussed some of these things at her DARE program, including pacifiers on strings and other signs of drug abuse.

Luckily my DD feels comfortable telling me things that she does know!! My SIL has not been so lucky... her child never told her anything so my SIL assumed that she was ignorant of such things and found out the hard way that her daughter was just being secretive because she was involved with a bad group.

Anyway, that's all beside the point! I still love the 80's stuff and glad it's making a comeback. I'm just upset that some people would take it and make it into something it's not intended to be.
