[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP who originally posted about not being allowed to wear black as a child. I just asked my mom about it and she said it actually stemmed from how my grandmother (dad's mom) viewed the color - as sad and somber, meant for funerals and mourning. She believed that kids should wear bright and fun colors and my mom agreed with her so she kept black out of our wardrobes. Again, we are a non-religious family, so religion has nothing to do with it. Definitely no pearl-clutchers, either. And we were raised in Naples, FL and Potomac, MD for those asking where I grew up. [/quote] Thank you! I'm the poster who asked for more details on why this would be a thing and I appreciate the explanation. [/quote]
