[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your kids are probably embarrassed as hell.[/quote]
That means I'm doing my job as a parent.[/quote]

I would agree with that in some cases, but not in the case of, "Oh look, Larla's mom is a slob who wears pajamas out in public."[/quote]

I’m 35, and 20 years ago the mom the uptight moms made fun of as “sloppy” was the one all the girls liked the most because she was not obsessed with looks— she was a cool artist. So don’t worry, while you judge OP your daughter is embarrassed by you for being the uptight mom. We cannot escape embarrassing our child but you could try to be more creative about it. [/quote]

I'm really not uptight. I was embarrassed by own mother for normal reasons, but absolutely mortified when she took me to school in her pajamas. I'm no fashionista, either.[/quote]

If you’re calling Larla’s mom “a slob” then yes you are uptight, at least about this, potentially triggered by your personal history. If you care less what others think you will find you also care less how others dress. It’s better for your sons and daughters to model the idea that appearance is merely the least interesting thing about someone. [/quote]

Not true.  How you present yourself in appropriate clothing is very important.  Dirty clothes, uncombed hair, wearing pajamas in public is a bad look and you are judged. [/quote]

Judge away Karen. IDGAF what you think about me. Be happy I have clothes on. [/quote]
