[quote=Anonymous]Some girls skirts come with built-in shorts. So do some women's skirts (see Athleta, for example.). I often suggest to my 3.5-year-old that she wear shorts under her dress. I don't want her flashing her undies (for the same reasons you, OP, don't want your DD lifting her skirt) and I want her to focus on being active and learning, not worrying about whether her undies are showing during "circle time" or when hanging from the monkey bars. I don't see this as being overly conservative and it's not a big deal. In our culture, people don't show their underwear, and I see wearing shorts under a dress or skirt as helping my daughter meet that social norm without having to pay a lot of attention to it at her young age.[/quote]
