[quote=Anonymous]So if there's nowhere no wear it, and she's just fine with it, I'd let her pick: 1. she keeps it and wears it if/when she has the chance 2. you return it and give her some or all of the money I'd personally frame it as being an "extra" dress that she may not have the chance to wear, rather than bringing up your concerns that it is too young for her. I think it's fine to think about her wardrobe more broadly. I'd do it slowly and gradually, without any reference to this particular dress. At the beginning of middle school, my DD was on the slower side of developing an interest in clothes. But I'd ask her questions about what other kids were wearing, I'd pay attention to other girls at school events, and I began to take her shopping a little more. Bit by bit, her wardrobe began to look more like that of her middle school peers, though with her own personal aesthetic. [/quote]
