She owns four - but one is her favorite.
I'm sure most moms could relate to this.

As someone whose mother refused to spend much on my clothes, can I please recommend you buy her more than one hoodie if she wears it every single day. Buy her at least one more. And wash them after 3 to 5 wears.

Agree +1. And why doesn't she wear her coat anymore?


Her school does not have lockers so she has to carry her laptop, binders, folders, lunch and jacket around all day. If she wears a hoodie, she wears it all day and that's one less thing she was to carry.

My son has 3-4 hoodies.

You can find them very inexpensively pretty much everywhere.

Not until the smell starts to permeate some common area of the house.

Once a week? This isn't something I'd spend any time on.

When it smells or has food on it.

The new middle school my DD attends does not have lockers so the kids schlep their 100 lbs backpack and jacket throughout the day. Knowing this, I bought DD a not-so-bulky winter jacket. She wore the winter jacket up 'til recently and now wears just a hoodie. She has just two hoodies and wears one several days in a row. I'm sure she wears it ALL day long, too. Question: if the hoodie doesn't smell or is not stained, how long will you let DC wear a hoodie before you confiscate it to wash?
