    Terrifying!

    That's just what we need... little girls being taught that high heels are the best thing they can put on their feet.

    Sheesh!

    Just plain silly. Of course, I couldn't get my babies to keep socks on their feet let alone shoes for their 1st year...

    Thinking this is that whole 'Dress my baby up like a dolly' thing that women sometimes get giddy with when they have a now baby. On a more positive note, they are not truly heels, but are squishy slippers not even meant for babies of walking age - so no danger of walking injuries. But, really, if I had to choose silly slippers for a baby, I would be all over fuzzy monster feet & toe rattles.

    It's bad for little girls to wear high heels--can damage the development of their feet. In my opinion they shouldn't be worn until the feet are done growing.

    I started wearing high heels at a very young age [It's a long story why] and most of my adult life has been spent in excruciating achilles pain because my calves have grown too short. I only expect this to get worse as I get older.

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not subject young girls to high heels, it's going to ruin their muscles.

    Those Heelarious shoes are actually squishy and not meant to be walked on but I still find them disturbing. I LOVE heels but they should be reserved for women, not little girls and ESPECIALLY not babies! Heels carry a connotation, usually of a sexual, or at least sensual, nature so why purposely sexualize little girls?

    Whoever thought of those shoes has issues, IMO.

    Definitely disgusting sexualizing little girls like that. I know this post was started a month ago but had to chime in on it.

    As a little girl, I never really wanted to wear high heels, though I did love to walk around in my moms. I think the high heels for babies is a ridiculous idea. It sounds just idiotic to me. And I also believe it sexualizes little girls. I know that is not the intention of the creators of the shoes, but there are a lot of sick people out there who don't need incentive to look at little children. Simply put, it's a bad idea all around.
