Tails are they wearing like backpacks or something for them not to run away? Or like animal tails
Pls tell me itās bc itās close to Halloween and children are not getting into the whole furry community.
@Gabrielle for 7-11 year olds i wouldnt think thatd be it. Tho i wish
Like for like a leash or furry tails?
I was volunteering at a farmers market this summer and we had two kids every week that came by with tails. Probably around 9-10yo. They told us they were furrions. But couldn't explain it much further. And that kids were mean to them at school.
Itās a taxidermy/ cosplay / furry thing. Itās not weird unless you arenāt involved in any of those things. People of all ages buy and wear them at all the convention shows.
@Kelsey theres a difference between confernece/shows and grocery stores
Lol are children not allowed to play dress up? We r talking animal tails right? Like a lion tail or mouse tail or something? Like completely innocent āIām gonna be a lion todayā type stuff?
My daughter was into that they are 12 years old. It was something they and their friends were into called Therions something like they had a spirit animal. Anyways I was fine with it, they told me that a lot of parents they knew were not okay with their kids doing that. I honestly donāt see anything wrong with it. Self expression and wearing what they want. For my daughter they stopped but I wouldnāt care if they continued. No one hurting anyone I donāt see why some parents are so upset.
Hahahaha who cares?? Are they hurting anyone??
Strange to care about something not hurting anyone. Kids being kids. Who cares
This is not new Iām 31 and kids were rocking them when I was a kid.
Awe! Sounds like you got to see some good moms IRL! it really is the little things that can brighten up a child's day and as a mom, all we want are healthy, happy kids, right? Lets normalize allowing kids to be kids and rooting for eachotherā¤ļø HAPPY HALLOWEEN š» š
Is it weird? Theyāre likely just dressing upā¦.? What do you find strange about this?

Iv seen four preteens with tails on while shopping in the past few months
They could either be dressing up early for Halloween or they identify as that animal
@Veronica my daughter and her friends call them selves therians they make masks and I crocheted my daughter a tail.
@Gabrielle animal tails.
@Trinity tbh I forgot it was even Halloween so it could be that but it was just so unsettling. Why are people allowing their children to get into a fetish.
Thatās my thing. I think its fine for kids to dress up and play and have fun and use their imagination, but I think that thereās a line that gets crossed when itās brought out into public, especially when there are adults that fetishize and romanticize these kinds of things.
Not the kids fault at all or the parents itās unfortunate that thereās weird ppl in the world. But I also did some research and thereās a large group of ppl who dress up as furries or therians simply for animal roll play and not sexual roll play so itās such a weird gray area idk.
@Kelsey I mean weird as in even if my child was part of that, I wouldnāt allow them to go outside like that. Not only are they opening up to billing but also limiting their social connection.
@Victoria I have no doubt it was innocent but not āIām going to be a mouse and dress upā more like āI love my little pony and Iām going to wear this floor length multicolour tail everywhere I goā. One kid was in the shop and was screaming at her mum āyou canāt tell me what to do, my name is zephyr rawrā š¬
@Trinity exactly, Iām all for do what want in your own safe space but as soon as you bring that outside you have a million and one people with their different opinions and some of them are going to be sexualising your child. There is a huge community of sexualisation with the furries. When my child is being safe and at home I donāt mind as long as they enjoy what they do, I just donāt want grown adults thinking that itās a great way to āconnectā with my child.
Yeah I just find it really cringe like go ahead dress up whatever you want but not in public with a tail ā¦ And also those things get sexualised especially by people in public you donāt know who would do that so Iād rather my kid not do that in public and be at risk
People against their child being a child really wow me. People sexualize feet are you never going to let your child be barefoot? Or go to the beach/pool in a swim suit? I canāt control other people, but if wearing a tail makes my kid happy why would I get in the way of that. If itās a hard no for you moms maybe ask yourself why.
