Exactly.


You both sound like bitter old ladies. Just FYI.

Nope. You’re not the arbiter of what’s appropriate.

Not the hill to die on.

They will have the rest of their lives to wear business casual.

Obviously she’s not overly concerned with being fashionable and I’m certainly not going to micromanage what she wears - it’s her choice. But I’m just wondering if she’s the only one?


Actually that is what’s fashionable these days.

No, it’s not.


Yes, it is.

Also we never let our kids leave the house in non matching, ill fitting, or dirty clothing. Now as teens they don't do this either. Parents have made fun of me for years because I was so rigid about the appropriate clothing but now as teens they know how to dress appropriately for an event without being told. Oh and yes, they picked out their own clothing since they were young but we didn't hesitate to ask them to change before leaving the house. We also insisted the proper shoes were worn as well


You’re so cool! We’re all so, so very impressed.

Totally fine, let her be comfy before she starts some job as an adult and has to wear some horrible suit with shoulder pads


It’s not a fashion statement. It’s lazy.


It’s comfortable and you’re ignorant and judgmental.

I work in a middle school, and many girls are wearing them to school every day. It has absolutely become a "thing." I guess the good news is that they look clean and all (or most) are happily chatting with friends throughout the day.

At pick up (high school) on a given day I might see 4 or 5 girls wearing them and a few boys.

Seriously...doesn't everyone do this? I'm a lazy ass and don't make my own coffee. Each morning I stumble to the coffee shop and get my coffee...in my PJs
I throw over a sweatshirt so my headlights are fully covered. I'm definitely not the only one in bed attire.


Do you keep those same PJs on when you get home? We don't sit on our beds in "street clothes". So I'm wondering if you climb back in bed.

It’s just your kid’s school. I teach HS and all sorts of kids - straight A students, athletes, art/theater kids, etc - are all wearing pajama bottoms. It’s certainly not a sign of depression or kids who have given up.


Got it. Yeah it could definitely be my kids’ school. We are on the west coast, so obviously trends differ.

What are you talking about? Are you drunk or something?


Some parents are bad parents. Some parents are scared to say no to their kids. Which part is confusing?

Disagree. When have teens let their parents dress them? Wearing dumb trends is part of pushing boundaries as a teen. I really can’t imagine getting worked up over pajama bottoms at school. Let the kids have their dad jeans, middle parts, and sweatpants. They will look back and laugh about the silly trends.
