[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IP here. So clothes don’t matter? Are kids wearing sweats and jammies? We wanted to wait to get her a phone until 8th or 9th. Is that unrealistic?[/quote] Not realistic. Get her a phone now. There will be people here who say they waited but they will be in the minority and most kids have them. She will coordinate her own social life. FCPS here and some wear jeans. Any brand backpack is fine but make it a solid color. They carry them all day. Yes to sweats and pj pants. Be prepared to see very tiny tops that look like bras as well as lots of cropped tops. Some girls have Lulu etc but it doesn’t have to be their entire wardrobe. As for the bathrooms, my daughter uses it. She said the warnings were overly dramatic and she knows the ones to avoid because of drugs. I was concerned over violence etc and girls with periods but she said this has been a non issue. [/quote]
