[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not at all shocking.  My kid just started 9th grade at a private school and before he started we upgraded wardrobe, with a lot of the pieces (hoodies, quarter zips, pants) being in the $100-$200 range. I thought we were being pretty ridiculous, but, after seeing the other kids, this is the norm.  Even kids who I know don’t have piles of money.[/quote]\
then I'm thankful we chose not to put DC in private.

I've taught my kids that clothes are not worth that much. You are buying a name brand and status. That's it. Horrible way to live.[/quote]

My DD was voted best dressed at her HS - she shops exclusively at thrift stores and the most expensive thing she owns is a name brand purse she wanted that my sister got her. I sometimes wish she would want something from Nordstrom so we could shop together and I could resolve some of my childhood issues. My mom did not take me shopping really at all, a few times at an outlet store when I needed pants that weren't too short. [/quote]
