Old attire
Officially retired
Hey Mom and Dad guess what
One, two, three, four
not going to wear it anymore

Seriously?  It’s no wonder children today have such a sense of entitlement.  This is a terrible message to be giving them.  I can imagine a child seeing this ad and then whining to their parents because they have “last year’s clothes.”  I know they need to pull a profit and Christmas is around the corner, but this does nothing to draw me into their stores.  In fact, I think this is reason enough not to go.
