    I like how one of the mums pulls out this argument:

    When we ask Kym whether she thinks she contributed to sexualising Bobbi, she says no.

    “Do you watch the Olympics? They do gymnastics, they do swimming. Bobbi, a lot of the time, is more covered than that,” she says.

    "It’s like telling a woman, ‘You shouldn’t go out in public dressed like that because you could get raped.’

    Only difference is the olympians made an informed decision as adults to go to the olympics (I do agree that there are some sleezebags who try to make women’s sport uniforms and rules overly sexualised), while you daughter had her account created at 7 and it was probably not explained what the consequences could be.
