3-Year-Old Suri Wearing High Heels Enrages Experts

Reports say Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have come under fire from health experts after snaps of their 3-year-old daughter Suri wearing high-heels surfaced.

One pic shows the kid wearing a pair of open toe heels about an inch high, while clutching a cup from Starbucks.

High Heals May Cause Future Hind-Foot Pain
Stilettos, high boots and seemingly innocent sandals can cause severe foot pain later in life, a new study has warned.

Experts are of the opinion that wearing heels at a small age can be damaging to the child's physical growth.

"A common side effect of adults wearing heels too often is the tightening or shortening of the Achilles tendon," Fox News quoted New York podiatrist Dr. Oliver Zong, as saying.

He added: "At Suri's age, children are growing quickly, and you want everything growing at the same rate. If the tendon is not growing at the same rate as everything else, it could become a problem.

WAGs Energizing "High Heels And Low IQs" Culture
The WAGs are fuelling the ''high heels and low IQs'' culture which is influencing the young ladies to overlook the importance of good character.

"If a parent allows their child to wear the heels in moderation, that's one thing, but who's to say what is moderate for a three year old child.

"With an adult, [high] heels that don't fit properly can lead to hammer toes or bunions, but an adult's growth plate is closed. With a child that young, her growth plate is still open, so a pair of heels that is too tight could damage the growing bones of her feet.

Female Fetish for Towering Stilettos Raising Risk Of Chronic Problems
Modern women's penchant for high heels is putting them at a higher risk of acute and chronic problems.

"A child's proper growth could face serious problems if a growth plate is crushed."
