Some don't, in order to keep peace.
Yet I can't help but to think, if a 12-year-old feels she just MUST have a latex mini to feel good about herself.. I mean, even if it looks horrible in everyone else's opinion, I believe that our choises and mistakes, too, are ours to make and without making them we would never learn. So let her have the damn mini!
I think the thing is, that it's sexualising children when they're 12. It could invite paedophiles. I mean, do you think we should see toddlers wearing gimp suits? Note, I'm not applying this to 'rebellious' clothing in general - just clothing of the see-through PVC corset type. Rebellious clothing is fine by me.

Not to mention, clothes like corsets can cause health problems, especially in children; as high heels can also cause back, and ankle problems.
