[quote=Anonymous]There is a lot to dissect here. Does your dd want to wear name-brand clothes, or is she just upset she is being teased? If your dd wants some new clothes and likes those brands and you can afford them, then no problem in those regards. What is hard, though, is that you don't want to teach her that if someone else sees something wrong or different about you, that you should change it. Girls will always find something to tease - if your dd gets new clothes, then next the girls will tease her about her backpack, or haircut, or whatever. It is a very very hard lesson for a 13 year old girl (same still goes for me as a 40-something year old woman), but your dd needs to focus on being happy with herself and not get bogged down by the psychology of group-judgment.
