There are several united efforts that exist to protest these types of media products. Prevent-Connect out of the California Coalition Against Sexual Assault has a list serve that has thousands of individuals who work in the anti-violence, prevention education movement as members. We have united before to send letters, press releases, etc. to get products pulled from shelves before. Boycotts and Petitions do work--but only if they come w/ a mass amount of people or stature behind them. David Lee--www.calcasa.org is a good person to connect w/ in regards to accessing that list serve. Additionally, Family Violence Prevention Fund's CEO Esther Sole often speaks out about these issues too. She is a mighty force as well.

This is disgusting. It is over-sexualizing children and what this translates into is a norm that children can also be sexual objects--ultimately desensitizing child sexual abuse, statutory rape and child pornography. For me, this goes right up there along w/ companies that sell thongs for little girls. Think about it--And, who are the parents that are allowing these girls to pose for this pornography and buy these products. Are they being exploited w/ offers of big money and the thrill of being "famous". What a mess.
