Why?
Why put your kid in a bow twice as big as her tiny head every single day? It looks ridiculous. |

| Yes, they do look ridiculous. Laugh (inwardly) at children who wear the stupid things and move on. |

Nope, but I was born there. We don't wear bows in Russia. |

We do. Did you go to a daycare center or an elementary school there? Huge white bows? I've never seen anything like that in the U.S. |

Nice of you, as an adult, to laugh at children because of what their mothers and fathers choose to decorate them with - even if it is inwardly. Stop judging people - different strokes for different folks...... and then let your own freak flag fly. After that, go find something important to focus on. |

Ok, random coincidence that PP asked this and it ended up being true. Or is Russia known for ther strong opinions on bow wearing?? |

| We have lots of huge bow-wearing girls at DS's preschool. It's a Southern thing, I understand. Looks silly to me but means something to their moms. |

| I'm from the south and we love them! My daughter likes picking them out and asks to wear one each day. Not sure how a kids bow can get you so worked up... Would be like me bitching about another kid's bangs. |

| I agree that they look absolutely ridiculous (and most definitely question the mother's taste! Of course, the mother is usually wearing some equally ridiculous get-up herself - Lily Pultizer on a 35-year old - sorry, but get some style?!). However, it's not something to get worked up about - to each his own! |

| I have noticed that hair bows/ribbons are a sort of odd "status" at preppy Catholic schools. Very Lilly Pulitzer-ish. |
