[quote=Anonymous]My mom was really controlling about clothes and when I think about it, it's influenced my approach to dressing my kids. Like she used to sew a lot of clothes for us that were ugly and uncomfortable, and I hated itchy dresses and tights especially. I remember having one pair of jeans in ES and I would stash them in my backpack and change into them at school. When we were in MS/HS she would yell at my sister and I about shirts being too tight or showing too much skin, etc., when we actually dressed pretty conservatively. So I want my kids to like and feel comfortable in what they wear and we have enough money where I don't need to sweat spending a few hundred dollars a year on clothes. We get some stuffed passed on to us but if there are things my kids don't want to wear, we pass them on and I supplement by buying things they do like.[/quote]
