There's no denying a dressed-up baby is adorable, but one new fashion accessory for kids is causing controversy.

A company called Pee Wee Pumps is in hot water for their heels that are designed for babies.

Critics of the shoes say they assume all girls want to wear heels, and that they're forcing adult trends on young kids.  Others say they're concerned about the risk the heels pose to developing feet.

The creator of the shoes says there is no health risk, and that they're mostly used as props in pictures.
