Hi there,
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for your thoughtful comment. You might be surprised that I agree with you! I started thinking about this project a long time ago, but a recent incident that really upset my son's friend got me going. While I do detest some of the messages on kids' shirts, my plan isn't really to replace them with the opposite - I think you are right, kids shouldn't be the unwitting bearers of adult messages. I don't like advertising for companies on clothes either! Someone in the comments did suggest making tshirts and maybe for some of the designs I have in mind that would work - but I don't want to put anyone even more under the microscope with a message that says - hey! look at me! I'm different!
On the other hand, perhaps a book or coloring book that no one would be wearing would still be able to reinforce for kids who need to hear the message that they may be different, but that's ok!
I'm still in the brainstorming period, so I'm really happy to have all this feedback.
Thanks for sharing your point of view :-)
