THERE ARE CALLS today for the Irish government to undertake a study into the sexualisation and commercialisation of children.
The recommendation comes on foot of a report recently published in the UK which proposed guidelines for retailers, broadcaster and advertisers and proposed age restrictions for music videos, ensuring retailers offer age-appropriate clothing and making it easier for parents to block online material.
The author of the Bailey Report said that parents are often complicit in what their children wore, watched and did, and that blame cannot rest solely with retailers, broadcasters and the government.
So, who should take responsibility for the sexualisation and commercialisation of children? Who or what is to blame?
