What is WRONG with the PP's?  Do you actually dictate every last thread of clothing and mandate certain stores in your house?  Are you a communist?  WTF?

DDs in my house tell me what stores they like, and we go from there.  If the kids at school are wearing Justice, so be it.  EVERY store has "good" and "bad" looks - just like there are "good" and "bad" parents.

The ignorance here never ceases to amaze me.

OP, you would be beast off asking your sibling what store the niece prefers.  Girls can be picky!

I'm [i]paying[/i] for it. Purely capitalist, I assure you. I pay for stuff that will last longer than five minutes and is going to go with at least some other stuff she already has. Within those bounds, sure, she gets choices. But I get veto rights and those include vetoing entire stores where the crappy clothes fall apart and are cool for mere seconds. And we don't pay stores for the privilege of doing their advertising for them -- no clothes that have their names plastered all over the place. My kid is not their billboard.

So is it "ignorant" to expect to get something besides cheap tat for our money?

Fortunately my kid never liked Justice and now in middle school the girls would rather wear a burlap sack than anything that looked remotely like it came from Justice.
