[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I care about how my daughter looks. But I care less about how she “looks” than I care about her having a fun and enriching childhood, filled with exploration of different foods, mud, water, and fresh cut grass.

I also care less about her “looks” than I do about my own tine. I have no desire t spend hours coming through listservs, contacting people, and driving all over to buy single items just because they might looks nicer, when I can buy a whole wardrobe in a few places. I have no drive or desire to the resell these same items and deal with 86 emails with people negotiang me down $2,waiting for no-shows, all for a sweater or dress. I have no desire to spend hours stain treating items so they keep their value (don’t get me wrong, I do stain treat, but I’m less worried about a TShirt I spent a few dollars on if I don’t get a stain out). I have no desire to fuss over clothing that it seems will fit my child for barely a hot minute before they’re too small.

I guess everyone has priorities. Mine is to actually enjoy my child and our life, not to worry about people like you. [/quote]

please stop implying that if a child is dressed nicely they are not allowed to play and that the parent must have had spent days shopping through facebook groups (what?). if you have the money and are willing to spend it you can easily dress your child to look nice while wearing comfortable high quality clothes. my oldest DD wore gucci sneakers to playground that looked phenomenal, got a lot of compliments and she never faced no restrictions whatsoever regarding dirtiness of her play. i would much rather spend on everyday clothing that on "special occasion" crap that gets worn once a year and doesn't even look good in most cases.[/quote]
