[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids all look small for their age as well. They are short for being 14-19 mostly (I think one girl was 12).[/quote] No one was 19 in that photo. It was taken in 2014. Yes, they were still small, but tweens/teenagers change a lot in 4 years. Some would have been under 10 in that photo. [/quote] I can't find any pics where they look like a family of teens. I found one from 2016 and they didn't look much older than the pic with the blue shirts. What is it with people who abuse their kids and dressing them all in matching clothes? [b]Is it to take away their individuality[/b]? Also similar to Turpins it seems these kids had no social media presence and were not online. Yet parents were.[/quote] Yes. I think you hit the nail on the head. Sickening.[/quote] Frankly, I suspect any parent who dresses their kids in matching outfits and/or exerts an unusual amount of control/attention over what their kids wear is a control freak of sorts. On a far lesser scale, I've seen examples of parents like this and watched as they had a difficult time acknowledging/accepting that their children are their own individuals. I think this behavior is generally a precursor to conflict when the child becomes an adult. Now, I'm not talking about parents who want their kids to wear clean and presentable clothes or have some reasonable rules about appropriate clothing or want their kids to look nice for special events. I'm talking about parents who literally invest a lot of attention in picking out what their kids wear or insist their kids wear matching clothing. [/quote] My 3 boys wear matching shirts a lot... because they like to match. My oldest (8) is typically the initiator. They like wearing matching pj’s as well. I really hope people don’t view this as a negative and that we’re taking away their individuality :shock: .[/quote] Fine for 8 and under. But will they still be wearing matching tee shirts when they are tween/teen? [/quote] No, very likely this phase will pass soon. For now, I think it’s pretty cute that they’re all so close and like to match. They were SO excited to get 2 matching shirts in their baskets yesterday that they had to immediately put one on.[/quote]
