[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Set a clothing budget and let tween/teen decide how to spend it and/or purchase trendy items using their own money.[/quote] I agree with this but I also think what you are buying the alternative matters. I don't really know the current equivalent, but, for example, my mom was buying KMart, which was a huge no-no. I have to imagine there is a middle ground between the latest, greatest, most expensive and the Kmart equivalent. It also matters what your actual finances are. My mom bought Kmart because we didn't have a lot of money. That is different from having plenty of money, but just being frugal with your kids' clothes because you as an adult don't think fashion is important and have decided that your kids *shouldn't* think it's important.[/quote]
