[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never allowed my DD to wear leggings unless she also has a tunic, dress, skirt, or shorts on top. It is about understanding appropriate clothing. [b]If you allow it with your 5 year old, when do you tell that child that they cannot do it?[/b] When they are 10 and heading into puberty? If you are lucky, your older child will obediently drop their legging/t-shirt habit. But if they are like most children, they will be habituated to that uniform and then there will be a devil of a time convincing them to dress appropriately for their developing bodies. To me this has nothing to do with sexualizing children but about teaching them appropriate dress codes right from the start. Now get me started on bikinis on 3 year olds and then I'll go forth on sexualizing little girls.. [/quote] Never. If my teenage daughters want to wear pants-that-are-leggings rather than pants-that-aren't-leggings, that's fine with me.[/quote]
