No. And I'd tell him to shut his hole before he swallowed a fly too.

My point is that people should be appropriately dressed where ever they go. I can't think of any place that a pink tu tu looking skirt would be appropriate outside of a dance class. All of those ugly clothes should be burned. No one should wear them.
I believe the point that you and others are trying to make is that you think people should dress like "normal" people. If this young boy, or lady (whatever gender the child has chosen) or anyone else wants to wear something regardless of how god-awful we think it is then by all means let them wear it. I saw a person wear a tutu out in the store one day. Why? because the person liked it and wanted to. Thats good enough for me.

Heres a question, "Would you let your child tease, bully, and/or humiliate anyone dressed such as this"?

If someone wants to pay him to model, he can wear whatever they put on him.

I absolutely agree, a far more important question.

You can and should teach kids not to bully or publically mock people. What they actually think and feel about things is a whole other issue that nobody can control. And no matter how forward thinking you think you are as a parent you aren't going to change how OTHER kids react.

Some kids might not have a problem with anyone doing anything, others will react to it since it's out of the ordinary and probably not something they would ever expect to see.

I have no problem with a child wearing a tutu to school if that's what he/she wants and it fits in the dress code.

But I wouldn't buy my child a pink vinyl tutu.... Girl or boy, it's not happening. I just don't think it's an appropriate way to dress for school. The kids are there to learn, not to distract the class with their wardrobe choices.

Those clothes are ugly but it should be his choice. If he were my son I'd warn him how people might react but I'd let him wear what he wants.
