Suri has other little girls asking for high heels? This is strange to me, because I don’t see how little girls would know or care what Suri Cruise is wearing or even who she is. The first knowledge of a celeb that I had was Leo DiCaprio after Titanic, I was at least 8… these kids are into *hollywood glam & sparkles* so early now.

I highly doubt suri cruise is causing other kids to want high- hills. As long as there’s dress up clothes that come with plastic high – heels and mommies who leave theirs around, children will want the shoes.

I have to agree, Alice. Seems weird that a little child would know who Suri is, unless she’s going to the gossip sites with her parents. Which is pretty strange. The first celebrity I was really aware of was Mark Paul Gosselaar, from Saved By the Bell. I think I was about 7, and I liked to watch it on Saturday mornings. I thought he was dreamy

The little boy bringing the gun to school was about 30 minutes away from me. Not surprising in that neighborhood, sadly, but stuff like that happens all the time there. I would never move there

And in regards to Suri Cruise with the heels, I also highly doubt any little girls under 9-10 years old would know who she is. It’s mostly preteens and teens, who would be up to date with celebrity families, and they would want to wear heels because of their friends, not a 3 year old.
