Thankfully, my child's teacher was much more down to earth and great. P

I'm off to order an LL Bean backpack or tote, monogrammed, a contigo water bottle, and my youngest baby will be attired in something striped and navy. Wish me luck in prying my daughters character shirt, backpack, lunchbox, and water bottle out of her little paws.



Don't you dare change a thing about your little girl!

I imagine the brooks brothers as looking and acting like the two old guys in Trading Places.

I’m now picturing you getting down to business in an Iron Man sleep t-shirt and I love it. More power to you!


THAT would be ridiculous......my jammies are Captain America 😆

Plus my partner looks like Aquaman. It's like Comic Con in our bedroom.




I think aquaman and caltain America getting it on is probably the subject of some really hot fan fic.


Omg character fanfic is SO low class.

But some fanfic about a three way between the Brooks Brothers and Huge Boss? Now that’s something you can show off to the neighbors.


Well I assume there would be some dramatic revelation of cheating when someone discovers the briefcase has the wrong monogram?

I’ll join this party... 40 year old CPA currently rocking a Firefly T-shirt. Oh noes, some moms will think I’m not classy! Guess I better go conform...

I don't understand the concern cited in this question. What is wrong with characters on your shirt, especially for kids? In fact, I just got my DH a shirt from 80s tees depicting Judd Nelson's iconic fist in the air at the end of the Breakfast Club; does that make me classless?

My daughter wore an entire Cinderella costume to preschool every day for a year complete with red sparkly shoes from Target. Adorable. She's now in advertising.

Be the change you want to see.

Your daughter clearly likes these ideas and it is better to know the classist strivers and elitist snobs early. If your child wanted to dress differently that would be a different discussion, but don't buy a whole new kit because someone thinks else thinks your preschooler's style is good enough. There are enough real problems in the world.

My seven year old only wants to wear clothes he can play sports in (think lots of basketball shorts, jerseys, etc.). I wonder where this puts me in DCUM hierarchy? Is this higher or lower class than *gasp* character shirts. Oh, but he feels good about himself and loves being active. I’d rather he be able to run around and move than put him in stuffy clothes that look like a catalogue.
