They are Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle "lounge pants". He wants to wear them to ASDA. I said no. He says I'm bu. I'm not, am I?

I just don't get the concept of 'let'. You're not his owner.

NoCapes · 10/09/2017 10:53

Why would he want to do that?? Why?!

I wouldn't allow my child to wear them to the supermarket.

Cambionome · 10/09/2017 10:55

Absolutely fine so long as he doesn't expect you to go with him. He can crack on and do all the shopping on his own.

Your partner? Wishes to wear teenage ninja pyjamas? How old is he?

ShapelyBingoWing · 10/09/2017 10:55

Just tell him to go alone if it would embarrass you. I wouldn't like it either but I wouldn't pick the battle of trying to get him to get changed.

So...which one of the Ninja Turtles are you PenSylvester?
I'd be Michael Angelo so I could eat pizza guilt free Envy

TeacupsAndDaffodils · 10/09/2017 10:57

That should be Grin not Envy

fosterdog gave the most typical mumsnet response!!! 😂😂😂

Tell him to go alone. I'd laugh him out the door.

stopbeingadramallama · 10/09/2017 10:59

Are you dating a child?

Don't understand the whole 'let' business.

80sMum · 10/09/2017 10:59

Did you actually mean to say DP, or was it supposed to be DS?

RJnomore1 · 10/09/2017 10:59

Photos or it didn't happen.

Put them on FB or twitter. Once his mates are done with him he will never even consider leaving the house in them again!

Brittbugs80 · 10/09/2017 10:59

How old is he?

Why is that relevant?

PutThatPomBearBack · 10/09/2017 10:59

Fucking hell some people need to lighten up.

Unicorn81 · 10/09/2017 10:59

Ah let him wear them, whats the harm?

Crisis averted, we have compromised with him wearing trackies. It was that or standing very, very far away from him.

YANBU - people who wear pyjamas to the supermarket are really common.

ZeroFuchsGiven · 10/09/2017 11:01

I don't know any grown man who wears pj's at all never mind to the supermarket.

80sMum · 10/09/2017 11:05

Crikey! So, it's an adult male? But why does he wear kiddies' pyjamas?!! Hmm Oh well, each to his own!

Obviously the "let" thing was a joke. If he was really that set on it I couldn't do anything to stop him...

yes there are rather a lot of them, aren't there?

timeisnotaline · 10/09/2017 11:07

He can wear whatever he wants I suppose. But you can judge judge Judge. And don't let him make any children come along with him and be humiliated . Hmm

thathappened · 10/09/2017 11:16

Grin whatever have YOU done to make him threaten such a thing?! (Lighted hearted response as I assumed you were joking Grin
