I’m the poster directly above you, and I can commiserate with this, too. My 11 year old is also 5’8” and, yes, both the budget and the headspace required to keep her in appropriate clothes that fit properly are a lot! Only silver lining is that we can technically share clothes and shoes now, but I don’t think she’s very excited about that.
