[quote=Anonymous]I am sure looks matter. I am also sure that good grooming matter too. I had heard the daycare providers in my DC's daycare (when he was a toddler) discuss how some kids smelled great and some smelled gross, and that they never wanted to hold the stinky kids. I never forgot that. After that I made sure that my kids clothes smelled good and they were bathed and smelled like baby lotion. In fact I even rubbed a small amount of baby lotion on their hair too! I used to rub fabric softener sheet on their clothes to prevent static in winter and that also made them smell very good. My kids shower everyday. Their clothes are clean and ironed for school. They use deodorants. Their backpacks, Jackets, shoes are routinely washed, so that they do not look grimy and yucky. I know that people around them are looking at them and subconsciously liking them more if they are good looking and that they are well groomed. It is but natural, is it not? [/quote]
