My kid weighs 220 pounds and is a teenager.
I know the trend is toward obesity, but my golly, 7-10 year olds?
Yes, everybody needs clothing, but it can't be healthy for young girls to weigh that much. Bear in mind, I'm not judging anybody for their weight. I'm just concerned about their health.

As for clothes manufacturers should just make all sizes without putting extra labels on them. Infants/Toddlers, Boys/Girls, Jr. Girls/Young Men, Men and Women. Some designers will make extended sizes and others won't. For the children don't shove them off to some little section with a few pieces of clothing in their sizes while the average size children have an unlimited selection.
Well i wanna have one
Huh? Did somebody say something? Sorry, I was asleep. Ugh! It's 5:12 in the morning.
