My mom won't let me wear these shoes?

[Anonymous]

I'm 16, mom says I can't wear these shoes. Why? :( ( by the way I can afford them)

[techitisJ]

Well I don't know you, but if you were clumsy, like you fell and tripped a lot, even out of heels, I would suggest a smaller pair to practice in and then upgrade to those. But really, their isn't an age limit to shoes. Those shoes can look really nice with some outfits. I know I couldn't wear them, because I'm a klutz, but if you can walk around in them without breaking your ankle, go for it.

1. They are too mature for you.
2. If you only just started wearing heels there is no way you would be able to wear them.
3. They are very uncomfortable and unpractical.
4. Heels that high and thin will put a lot of pressure on your knees and balls of the feet.

I'm laughing at the comment section right now due to the talk of you being "too young" for these heels, and how they look slutty when in fact when paired with the right outfit they could look quite elegant. Also, I didn't know there was an age limit on shoes. xD

[redeyemindtricks]

I know right? People talkin out they butts girl.

These are pure class. My forty-year-old ass could wear these to a black-tie ball. Don't sweat the haters.

OP Girl you should sit down with your mama, because her little girl's right on the edge of being a grown-ass woman, and these shoes are sticking that fact right in her face. Talk to her about it. As long as she's not beatin' her Bible and tellin' you these shoes are gonna send you to the devil, you can probably get to the bottom of this.

But, yes, you should PRACTICE walking with them. And if you are not used to walking in shoes of this height, make sure that you walk absolutely everywhere WITH someone whose arm you can hold.

@redeyemindtricks What I find funny about the whole situation is that when a teen wear short shorts/short sports wear, mini skirts, or a crop top no one blinks an eye. But when heels like these want to be worn they say the shoes are too "grown" for them. Honestly if I had daughter I'd rather her wear cute heels than super short bottoms and tops. At least these shoes can go with something elegant, and if she ends up into an alternative fashion like goth or pastel goth then they can be edgy.

[redeyemindtricks]

Right, which is why I tried to put myself in mama's shoes. Cause mine's gonna be there soon enough.

Those other things you mentioned, those are all babygirl clothes. Those are mostly stuff women STOP wearing when they hit the "grown-ass woman" stage (as much as their men might wish otherwise...)

That, I think, is the difference. I think we just have a textbook case of a mama trying to hold on to that last shred of her daughter's little-girl-hood.
It happens.

I mean, my older son (12yo) is already almost 6 feet tall. He's even had COLLEGE scouts at a couple of his football games ffs. But he's still my little boy <3

My daughter? (7yo) Yea I have no idea. I don't know what's up with girls, lol. I just had brothers and a single dad. We've been raising her like her brothers.

OP should talk to mama. It's easy to say mama is being a bitch here, or that mama is being unreasonable. Well, mama *IS* being unreasonable, but this is one of those times when unreasonable is called "emotional".

[Jackwagon]

Well... They're black... So maybe she's racist?

They look like something that'd be hard to walk in. Maybe she doesn't want you to fall and embarrass yourself.

[Asker]

She saw me walk in high heels she said I walk well in them

[Dubhlann]

Have you ever wore heels that tall before? My wife and daughter say they can be a challenge.

[karahiri]

because you're a child. and those shoes are not meant for a child.

[sherbearee]

Probably concern for your safety, the stigma around stilettos, and your age.
Also it'll be hell if you're walking around in those lol

[fauchelevent]

Heels put a lot of pressure on your knees and ankles and on your feet so at 16, when you're still developing, it is really not a good idea.

[Saviscool]

Parents don’t want there kids to “grow up” I’m 15 and getting my prom outfit ready and my mom sed. Nothing with a heel. I told her that I want to look my age and look pretty. My mom sed they are slutty. those heels are really pretty and your mom is an old bummer if she will not let you wear them. I would say buy them and secretly were them. Bring a backpack and put them in there and when your not around her you can wear them.

[nymous1234]

Maybe too sexy and mature for you in her opinion. If you promise to wear them with a modest outfit maybe she will allow it ;)

[XxCookiexX]

AH! I'd die! Those are so cute! It's probably because they are too sexy and for really formal events.

[FrenchEmma]

Because it looks slutty and your mom is right. I'm 16 too and I can't imagine how people would look at me in the street/ in high school if I wore them

[FrenchEmma]

This shoes could be worn by the "workingwomen" in Pigalle lol

[existing_not_living]

I can understand why. You're 16. Why do you need to wear heels that size?

[KDA20]

I am sorry I agree with your mom, a bit old for you

[TSWIFT243]

She's probably just worried that you might not be able to properly walk in them.

[Dubhlann]

We let our daughter wear heels similar to those to school formal dances... but first she had to prove should COULD wear them.

[TSWIFT243]

@Dubhlann that's a very smart thing to do, if she can manage to wear them, she can have them. Nice 👌

[Dubhlann]

My wife was mad she looked better in them than her.

[TSWIFT243]

@Dubhlann lol 😂

[The_Advisor]

Because balancing in those things you would likely twist an ankle.

[Memora]

Classic moms would say they look like hooker heels.

[ConsultantIsBack]

Sexyy heels!!
Who knows, why not ask her lol
Maybe you should be saving for college lol

[brnxsweet]

Yeah they're cute but she probably thinks you're too young for them

[crazyperson19]

Those are cute shoe's. Your mom probably don't want u to have them Cuz those shoes just might bring too much attention to your legs.

[hifromkai]

Probably because you'll break your fucking ankle

Or she thinks they make you look like a prossy

[redeyemindtricks]

"Prossy" is cute. What country are you from?

[hifromkai]

[justbanANNAz]

[Asker]

So? I want to wear them anyway!

[justbanANNAz]

[SolitaireBond]

[AWiserFool]

[cinderelli]

[Iamathinker]

[Dred1614]

They look like stripper shoes.

[Anonymous]

[Noxifer626]

I don't know. They look classy to me.

[CommonChameleon]

Maybe she doesn't think you need them.

[Polocrew]

I don't know but heels are hella hot

[Xoxoxooo123]

Because you're young

[CassDW]

Probably, that's not for your age because of it

[Anonymous]
