[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s fine for parents to say no to their kids when they want impractical shoes. She will not complain to her therapist that her individuality was quashed because she didn’t get the shoes she wanted when she was 8. Those shoes are not a good choice for running around in pe class or recess and light up shoes are not appropriate for school. In 7 years, you will all be on the teen board wondering why your kid is spending $400 at Sephora every weekend. [/quote] I disagree on what she may talk to her therapist about. It depends how many times this happens and how it's explained and how anxious and pushy mom is. It's not the shoes but the mom's reasoning behind the shoes and not seeing the child and what people think of the child as separate from herself. OP might not be that mom, but some moms are.[/quote]
