We don’t mean to dwell. Last week, we posted about this whole barefoot in public thing, but apparently there are still a few celebrities who haven’t gotten the message.
We get it–little feet are adorable. But so are little shoes. People would look at you funny if you were walking around your city with no shoes on–hello, remember Britney Spears circa 2008–so why should shoes be optional for your child? And there’s a reason you can get turned away from lots of places if you’re not wearing shoes–it’s totally unsanitary.
So moms, once and for all, please stop bringing your children out the house barefoot. It’s really not cute–it’s gross. These, on the other hand, are cute.

But little dirty feet are even more adorable, especially if they belong to Suri!

In my opinion,you are being overly judgemental about the barefoot vs. shoes issue! The pictures show two celebs carrying their bare-footed children…probably back to the car after splashing in a waterpark or something similar! Me-thinks we are a wee bit OCD with the germaphobia! lol

Kids grow really fast & tight shoes might give them painfull conditions so if they´re being carried, carry on!

Franly, I think it is gross how you make such a big deal out of something so natural and innocent. Can’t you let children be children, or is that too much to ask for? So what if a child is barefoot?
