[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]to the adults criticizing kids loving things that are trendy or name brand- they are trendy for a reason lol. I have fun talking about trends and getting excited over things with my DD. [/quote]

Ignore them. They are the same misery lovers who found the pandemic to be NBD because they hate movies, restaurants, concerts, parties, kids’ sports, Disney, and talking to other humans.[/quote]

Not kids’ sports and Disney. The rest I quite enjoy. [/quote]

Perfect, you like having fun yourself, but, don’t like things that are fun for kids. It’s understandable that you wouldn’t enjoy buying your kids gifts either.[/quote]

You don’t sound very bright. It’s understandable that your kids are already getting taken in by cosmetic companies claiming their products make life more fun. [/quote]

Read, wear, need, want

A book, a scarf, new socks, a pack of gum

Is that what your daughter is getting?[/quote]

Don’t forget the ubiquitous “art supplies”….my daughter has been getting art supplies since she was a toddler, but she’s 12 now and the girl wants a pair of Uggs and fancy lip gloss and PP’s on here act like it’s sacrilegious. [/quote]

Pp here who’s dd is getting art supplies.  she has also been getting art supplies since she was a toddler, but we’re trading the crayola in for prismacolors and Copic markers. She is serious about her art so we are taking it seriously.[/quote]

+1 Our daughters would be friends. She’s in a magnet program for visual arts and her list is mostly art supplies. [b]I don’t think anyone at her school wears Lululemon or even Uggs.[/b][/quote]

If your kid goes to HS in the DMV, the chances of that seem very low.[/quote]

I don’t know, my DD is at a HS with a visual arts magnet program, and I don’t see a lot of those brands. It’s possible some of the flared leggings I sometimes see are Lululemon, but I doubt it. Definitely no Uggs, but tons of Crocs. My DD and her friends not only don’t wear Lululemon or Uggs, they wouldn’t be caught dead in them.

The sportier girls sometimes wear baggy sweats and hoodies, but I generally see lots more thrifted-type outfits. It’s just a very quirky, creative environment, so the way to conform (to be “cool,” that is) is to not conform, if that makes sense? There’s almost more competition to be anti-fashion. [/quote]

Are any of them wearing Docs?[/quote]
