Who turn up in their PJs are just lazy?

Why would anyone want to take their child to school in their PJs? It takes what all of 5 mins getting dressed??

Just seen a mum with black and white polka dots PJ bottoms on, fluffy ugg style slippers - they were slippers as they had bunny ears on them flapping about!! Hmm

Is it just me who thinks its lazy?

To each their own. It doesn't impact on your life, so why care?

So you do care then, you care about their pyjamas because it hurts you in some way.

They were already manky, they looked a good 5 yrs old lol

My 5yr old even mentioned it by saying 'mummy why does that lady have her slippers on?'

So the only things you can have an opinion on are those which directly affect you in some way? Hmm

I've never done the school run in jammies, but I doubt very much that my kids would give a monkeys if I did.

What a non issue.

YANBU. Some women just don't have standards do they! Minkers: the lot of them.

i have never ever seen this, but seen threads on it before on here so it's obviously the "in" thing to do in certain circles!

very odd if you ask me. i can't imagine why anyone would want to do the school run in their pyjamas but there you go

didn't one school ban mums from turning up in pyjamas?

I think mothers who do this are lazy slobs.

No it doesn't impact on my life in any way, but it doesn't stop me from judging them.

It takes minutes to get dressed in the morning. What is their excuse?

Ha no I wasn't my son is only 9 months but when he's going to school I'll remember to wear PJs a few times a week at least to stave off people like you.

I will confess to not getting properly dressed one morning. I spent most of the getting dressed time with my head over the toilet pan suffering from morning sickness. Poor dd did a great job of tidying away her breakfast stuff and getting dressed. (it was making her breakfast that had set me off). To avoid being late for school I ended up just pulling a pair of jeans and and a jacket on over my PJs Blush. Call me lazy if you want but it took a lot of energy not to vomit between home and school. When I got home I did get showered and dressed properly.

I have seen this debate on MN now three or four times. It's totally unpredictable as to which way it will swing.

I say it's just inappropriate to go out in nightwear, just as it would be inappropriate to go to the gym in a cocktail dress. Not that I have ever seen anyone do the school run in their PJs Grin
