I personally don’t understand adults who can’t bother to throw on non-PJ pants before leaving the house. There are so many cute joggers and casual pants now that are really comfortable. It really doesn’t take much effort to look somewhat pulled together.

They are pretty much the same as pj bottoms.

And yet they look somewhat better. My personal pet peeve is people who leave the house, for any reason, without brushing or taming their hair. Messy “buns” don’t count. Have some self-respect people! It takes 10 seconds to run a brush through and another 10 seconds to swap pj pants for leggings or joggers.

If I run a comb through my curly heavily textured hair for 10 seconds it looks way worse. Bun is the only halfway near thing that takes less than 10 minutes. Congratulations on having easy hair!

Project yourself any way you want to be perceived.
PS - your kids notice

I think you mean " I wonder what DO school teachers / staff/ parents think of me?"
they think you are a doofus.

Wait, do you simply drop off or do you have to get OUT of your vehicle and walk your child somewhere?

Skip the Christmas print pajama pants. Stick to dark colors and no one will know from a distance. Comb hair or slap on a hat.

How obnoxious that you think everyone's hair is like yours. Mine isn't.

People who wear pjs in public are just gross. You know it.

I’m generally more worried about what I’m doing, but if I glance over and see someone in pjs I usually think whew, there is someone here more disorganized than me! No thoughts on well fitting/clean athleisure with non sloppy hair.

I'm like you OP! I wear a long winter coat, boots, joggers. Every day. Very light makeup otherwise I'd look like a ghost.

+1. The PJ slob makes the rest of us slobs look better.

People who worry about this stuff are shallow. What is the difference between a pair of flannel pj pants and a pair of sweats or a pair of leggings. Nothing. All comfy and casual.

Glad others have pointed out the ridiculous assumptions of the hair-obsessed person.

As long as someone is clean, WTF cares about this nonsense?

While this is true, I would say they notice. I’m mean - pajama pants?! How lazy can you be? Pull on black leggings, joggers or yoga pants. But rolling out of bed and going to your kids school? People don’t care what op does, but that doesn’t mean s/he’s not leaving an impression.

Joggers aren’t pj pants.
