[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how all of these lazy parents claim “they don’t fight their children” when it comes to clothing. I read that, “im too lazy to be bothered with what my child is going to experience all day.”  It is your job to parent them and that means directing them to seasonally appropriate clothing. If they were fully developed, rational beings they wouldn’t need us.[/quote]

They will keep needing you if you make every decision for them. And then they will have anxiety because you raised them to believe they can't make their own decisions.

Try again.  My child and I look at the weather app together every morning and talk about what he should wear.  He is in 4th grade. We do not have battles about clothes because we've overcome a power struggle when he was 2 and 3.  If you're still having to do this with your upper elementary aged kid, you need to re-evaluate.[/quote]

By fourth grade, a child shouldn't need you to look at the app with him and decide on what to wear.  He can do that himself.[/quote]
