Its an article from a news paper i am posting here to share with everyone
From the barbie girl to bratz dolls sexy sells, little girls want to be 'hot and sexy' too soon. They are dancing provocatively to item numbers like Shelia and munni. A topless Mallika Sherawat in a magazine has 10 years old girls shop for padded, push up bras to look like her. This season the judges of India' Got Talent were shocked as they had pre-teen contestants dancing. Sexualisation of children is a realty that giving parents new level of  anxiety. it is overpowered by the images and contents strewn with sexual undertones. There are four year old girls who wants to look and dance like munni and sheila. You can see for years old boys they even don't know what is marriage but they utter that they will marry munni and sheila. you can also see  in the cinema like ANJANA ANJAANI or UDAAN. Kids have too much information. we don't want to have a generation of kids   who know everything and have experienced nothing.

Sexy kids, tilted growth!
According to the report published by American Psychological association, sexualisation has to do with treating other people as objects of sexual desire. When kids are sexualised , their value comes from sex appeal and this can be damaging. Children are already bombard with sexual images, kids are even more vulnerable since our society and cultural attitudes often prevent discussion of sex. We need public watchdogs and whistelblowers  and law that are sensible enough to be practically implemented. kids who aren't part of this over sexualisation feel odd and. There's pressure on them indulge in sexual talk.Parents need to indulge more proactively in their kids lives.

Too much , too young?
parenting website Mumsnet lunched its "let girls be girls" calling  on retailers to pledge not to sell the products that sexualise children. "the way the little girls and boys dress and behave is worrying.

Proactive parenting
  • Help boys and girls find appealing role models.
  • try not to blame children or make them feel guilty.
  • Try to take your child's point of view and see the world through his or her eyes.
  • Tell your child they can ask you anything, don't assume they know that.
