Q. Is there a source for parents to avoid dressing their kids in clothing that contain images of unkosher animals?
Thanks.
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that images of non kosher animals are not necessarily detrimental or unfavorable, since we do have many a poroiches decorated with lions and old time shuln that have painted images of eagles or deer. There are also chumoshim and seforim that carry pictures or drawings of non kosher animals. The main issue is the idea that is being projected and conveyed. If it represents a negative design that is contrary to Torah principles, it should be avoided.
