DH wears Havanas to the beach. DS likes Croc slides at the beach. Otherwise they both were various lightweight trainers or boat shoes in the summer.[/quote]

Ummm.... I think it's clear that I disagree with you.  Men have feet that get hot and need something to wear.  I have no problem with DH or DS wearing sandals... nor do they.

As for what my 17 yr old "wants" to wear -- he couldn't care less until I get something and he tells me he doesn't like it.  He has no idea what he "should" wear other than he doesn't generally wear sneakers all the time during summer. DH can make his own choices.  [/quote]

It's time to cut the apron strings. I cannot imagine picking out what clothes to purchase for my 17 year old. [/quote]

Well, you do you.  If I didn't pick out things for him to wear, he'd be naked!  Or actually wearing things from when he was 10.  Neither of my kids likes to shop.  It's not an affliction.  In fact, it's almost a character upgrade that he is not materialistic.  I'm sure there are plenty of moms who pick out things for their teenage sons, as well as plenty of wives who help their husbands pick out clothes/shoes.  Do you think being judgmental like that is helpful?  [/quote]

Not being able to dress yourself at 17 is absolutely an affliction. There's a difference between liking to shop/being materialistic and having the ability to go to a store and pick appropriate clothing for yourself. Going naked or wearing clothes from elementary school unless your mommy buys you new ones is... something else.

Are you going to keep picking his clothes for him when he goes off to college? [/quote]
