[quote=Anonymous]I send my child to school every day with a bandana to catch drool, as well as awkward looking foot braces that my child has to wear to keep limbs in position.

Neither of these things is traditional tween attire.  Neither helps my child fit in.  By extension, according to OP's "tips," these things should be jettisoned, immediately, in favor of trendy tween attire.

I really don't get the logic here.  OP and her supporters seem to saying, I don't care if your clothing and appearance are caused by or attributable to your symptoms.  Doesn't matter to me.  I don't give a damn.  It's your job to fit in, it's your parents' job to make sure you fit in.  All the time.  Regardless.  And it damn well better be your first priority, come hell or high water.

Maybe, just maybe, OP. you could consider a support group?  For the kids whose attire is stained, ripped, too short, too babyish, too logo-oriented?  Maybe you could support instead of condemning them?  Hell, invite the disabled kids too![/quote]
