Times have changed

Currently children dressing up like adults and having the responsibility of feeding and caring for their younger siblings. This could be happening around us in our family and the children tend to being forced to grow up too fast. Some group of people may argue that why should the children dress up like a little mini adults. This group of people used to dress their own children in the most comfortable clothes that they could run in and mess up because that's what childhood is all about.

However, the trend of kids fashion in Malaysia is increasing. Children today are influenced by what they see in the media, by the technology they are exposed to, and what they see in the environment around them. While the parents are influenced by their children on decision of purchasing. There is no gender difference between boys and girls in the extent of their influence on parental purchases. However, products requested by girls when shopping with parents tend to vary widely from those requested by boys. The tactics most used by Malaysian children to get their requests accorded were found to be pressure tactics, rational persuasion and upward appeal.
