Interpretation of Children

So you want to make this the definition of "children's product?" Then answer me this: is a pink "Hello Kitty" t-shirt in women's size 0 a "children's product?" It's in a color "commonly associated with childhood," in a size "that would not be comfortable for the average adult" (given that the average adult woman is about a size 14), and it bears a cartoon image that "contribute[s] to its attractiveness to children 12 years of age or younger"... and it would make an excellent Christmas gift for both my 34 year old sister-in-law and my 12 year old daughter. Why don't you just give up the pretense and come straight out and say it: it's a children's product if we say it is, and all you manufacturers out there are our b*tches.
