Dh said this to Dd, 7, they’ve just nipped out to the shops, she asked if she could stay in her slippers, he said yes and that she’s just a kid and can wear whatever to the shops

Do you agree?

No. Slippers are indoor shoes and will get ruined outside.

I'd probably get her to wear shoes but I kind of agree with your DH. Wouldn't dream of wearing pyjamas or slippers to the shops myself but my DS has gone out early morning in Oodie and Crocs to get croissants previously.

No I wouldn't. I am not a fussy person at all but slippers are for indoors. Like I wouldn't let them wear their pj's.

Within reason but for me slippers are for indoors so I’d be asking her to put some shoes on.
