TK MAXX has been slammed for selling a coat for three-year-olds bearing slogans about sex, drugs and guns.
Parents were appalled by lewd phrases on the lining of the pink puffer jacket.
They include “phone sex”, “69”, “sex + drugs + hip + hop”, “bang bang your (sic) dead”, “pistol” and “looking after number one”.
The fashion chain is selling the coat — made for kids as young as three — for £29.99.
Krishma Patel, 33, almost bought one for her three-year-old daughter at TK Maxx in Kew, South London.
She said: “It just looked like a lovely pink jacket with a big furry hood, perfect for winter.
“I was about to pay when I noticed the word ‘sex’ in massive letters on the inside.
“I looked closer and noticed all these references to sex, drugs and guns. It’s in a graffiti style mixed with pictures so I didn’t notice straight away.
“The reference to ‘phone sex’ and ‘69’ on a toddler’s winter coat is disgusting. My husband and I were horrified.”
The coat is made by fashion house Richmond. Social psychologist Dr Sandra Wheatley said: “This was a very, very badly judged product.”

A spokesman for TK Maxx said: “We regret that we did not identify this design before it was sent to stores.
“We have already initiated a process to remove these coats from our stores, and are reviewing how we inadvertently purchased them.
“We’d like to apologise for any concern this may have caused.”
HOW WAS IT OK'D?
By Joely Chilcott, Fabulous Daily Editor
THIS jacket is outrageous — how did it get the go-ahead?
Having “sex’’, “drugs’’ and “69’ on a three year-old’s coat is irresponsible by the designer, manufacturer, buyer and retailer.
Fortunately, TK Maxx are already pulling these coats.
Thanks goodness for that.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
