[quote=Anonymous]When my son was a preschooler, he hated not having shoes on. (No, no autism, sensory issues, whatever -- just freaked out.) I'll never forget taking him to a party at a home where the hosts were Indian. My son looked at the shoes lined up outside and started to freak out. The hostess VERY, VERY kindly said it was fine for him to keep his shoes on. I started out feeling terrible because shoes-off was very much a cultural thing and expectation for this family, but they were more concerned about a guest's comfort than anything else. Showed class, and was very much appreciated. (FWIW, my son no longer has that no-shoes aversion. It was intense but short-lived.)[/quote]
