[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If possible I would just buy duplicates of the acceptable shorts, enough to get through a week. Then set her up with an allowance for clothes and let her manage it. Laundry too. For events where I care a lot like family funerals, I’d buy the clothes out of my own budget and die on the hill of appropriateness. But generally I don’t want to fight over clothes. 11 is old enough to manage a clothing budget. [/quote] The other reason here op is that the solution is in your post. When she had a budget to manage, she bought something reasonably practical and wears it nonstop. You might disapprove of lululemon, but at least she’s wearing it. So double down where you’re having success and stop trying to convince her that shorts on sale at dicks are morally superior. It won’t work anyway. [/quote]
