[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how all of these lazy parents claim “they don’t fight their children” when it comes to clothing. I read that, “im too lazy to be bothered with what my child is going to experience all day.”  It is your job to parent them and that means directing them to seasonally appropriate clothing. If they were fully developed, rational beings they wouldn’t need us.[/quote]

They will keep needing you if you make every decision for them. And then they will have anxiety because you raised them to believe they can't make their own decisions.

Try again.  My child and I look at the weather app together every morning and talk about what he should wear.  He is in 4th grade. We do not have battles about clothes because we've overcome a power struggle when he was 2 and 3.  If you're still having to do this with your upper elementary aged kid, you need to re-evaluate.[/quote]

Hi Miss Know-it-all. My child has a developmental disorder and doesnt learn that way. I parent my child in the best method that works for them. 
If you go through life assuming you know everything about everyone maybe YOU should reevaluate. You're not a better parent than anyone else here, and you are decidedly a worse person overall.

Don't bother with people who will never understand what having a non-NT kid is like.  Little Miss Smug can judge my parenting all she wants based on what my kid is wearing, if that's what it takes for her to feel morally superior, I'm okay with giving it to her.  I have a kid who runs very cold due to an invisible health issue and often appears overdressed, and the other runs hot and drives his dad crazy wanting to wear shorts nearly year-round.  We made charts for the kids to record the temperature, weather conditions, what they wore, and how comfortable they were to help gauge their on personal needs.  If the Smugs are so hard up for a confidence boost, they need to judge without all the facts, no skin off my nose.  We do us.[/quote]

I'm the miss know it all (according to the moron above).  What makes you think that I have a NT kid?  My kid is also special needs but hey, assumptions are always safe right?  No one is talking about your kid who has a medical condition.  it has been established we are talking about kids who are clearly overheated on a warm day.  You are the smug one my dear.  Take that chip off your shoulder.  You might learn something.[/quote]
