What do you think of children's clothes that have quotes or saying on them?

I think most of it is adorable, some of it is hilarious and I've seen some where I think wow I'm so glad that baby can't read yet. because some of it is a little raunchy. I've even seen some where I think its so funny but yet so bad :) In the photo is one I found that is cute.
Also do you get offended when you see some of the sayings or do you just brush it off and walk away?
here's a few I've seen...
now that I'm here i'm pro choice
if you think i'm handsome you should see my daddy (for boys)
if you think i'm adorable you should see my mommy, aunt or grandma (for girls)
wild child
I sold my baby brother to the zoo (for the older sibling)
i'm new in town
I could sit here all day and go down the list but I want to hear about some you've seen.

I think babies clothing with slogans or quotes looks adorable and special. The baby is too young to read it for sure but the parents can enjoy looking at the clothes. Today I bought my daughter aged two some Peppa Pig shoes. She likes anything pink you see. I walk my kids to school and one adult lady has a denim jacket with unpleasant slogans on it. It includes swear words and I think it looks awful. I often see her on the way to or from the school my son goes to.

now that's tacky to have it all over the place, I like funny sayings on adult clothes too but not in patches, and a denim jacket, yuck! I could spend all day just reading funny quotes on clothes :)

Yes, that lady should not be wearing her awful looking denim jacket with words that junior aged kids will be able to read. Everyone is shocked by her and I feel yucky when I see her.
I once saw a car with a sticker on it that said
" I used to be conceited but now I know I am perfect". It really made me laugh unlike that terrible lady.

There are plenty of adorable and funny slogans on baby clothes, but more often these days I'm starting to see more and more rude ones cropping up and personally I don't think that it's appropriate. Not that a 2 month old baby is going to learn anything for it, but simply the parental mentality that it's ok and the fact that at a later stage I can only imagine it bringing forward more issues such as bras, miniskirts, belly tops and miniskirts for little girls when they're far too young to dress like teenagers on a daily basis.
Kids are growing up to fast and although I may be overreacting, the slogans on baby shirts are only the tip of the iceberg (the rude ones that is, again, there are plenty of cute ones!).

I have seen inappropriate clothing for little girls and you are right it is getting ridiculous, they have miniskirts for little girls down here and short shorts for babies, so short you can see there diaper VERY TACKY!

Amen to that floridachick. Parents need to know where to draw the line between sweet, pretty, funny versus tacky and borderline 'bait'.

I think there are so many cute sayiings. My daughter has a lot of clothes that have very adorable sayings. I love a lot of them because they are so cute and special. Some I wouldn't put on my child. But most of them are really good. They don't stay little for long so it's nice to have clothes like that.

Those quotes are cute. I'm not worried seeing them in babies clothes. I'm just worried about some clothes that seems to be inappropriate for babies. What are the manufacturers thinking when they are making those clothes? I don't understand why in today's world, everything seems to be forced and rushed. It' like we are forced to grow old fast.
