To think that my DD is broken?

I noticed something really odd today, something I can't unsee!
My DD, 3, puts her trousers on before her socks!!

AIBU to think that this is absolutely crazy, and to question if she's even mine Shock

My socks go on last Blush is that weird?!

Mamadothehump · 09/05/2019 14:09

Erm, I think we all do this in our house!

22Giraffes · 09/05/2019 14:10

Everyone in this household does socks last!

Aquamarine1029 · 09/05/2019 14:10

I have always put my socks on last. So does my husband and my children. Why is this such a big deal?

rabbitheadlights · 09/05/2019 14:10

Socks last here too OP 🤔

Giantsbane · 09/05/2019 14:10

Haha if given the choice my 4yo would do the same. I supervise so reiterate socks first every morning but she always picks the trousers up first

Sexnotgender · 09/05/2019 14:11

I put my socks on after my trousers. Why wouldn’t I?

Fudgenugget · 09/05/2019 14:11

No broken at all. Socks go on last.

ArchieTheRegalDog · 09/05/2019 14:11

I do that too. Your dd is in good company Smile

Cath2907 · 09/05/2019 14:11

Socks on last in our house - unless putting on leggings.

SmellMySmellbow · 09/05/2019 14:12

Socks last, otherwise they are tricky to pull trousers over. Too much friction.

moreismore · 09/05/2019 14:12

I can confirm that YOU are broken Grin

Alb1 · 09/05/2019 14:12

Yep socks go last here too...

Purpleartichoke · 09/05/2019 14:12

Socks make trousers harder to get on. Of course they go on last.

Teddybear45 · 09/05/2019 14:12

You’re the broken one. Socks go on last

AppleKatie · 09/05/2019 14:13

Socks last unless trousers are a bit tight 😳

Kelsoooo · 09/05/2019 14:13

Socks always go on before trousers.

Pants
Bra
Socks

That order.

Then it goes

Sock sock shoe shoe

Otherwise

You could have

Sock shoe sock shoe

Which would be weird as fuck.

cardibach · 09/05/2019 14:13

I don’t put shoes on until I leave the house, and don’t need socks before that. Why would o put them on before my trousers. I do t think I’ve ever seen anyone put socks on first. It’s the rule. Socks off first and on last or you look ridiculous! You are the broken one OP!

ALemonyPea · 09/05/2019 14:13

Sorry Op, it appears you're the odd ball, not your DD. I bet you don't separate kit kat fingers before eating them either.

cardibach · 09/05/2019 14:14

Excuse typos and I correct punctuation (also typos)

hewontstopshitting · 09/05/2019 14:14

We all put socks on last, however DH sometimes puts his on first, before everything even his boxers. It always makes me laugh

SandyY2K · 09/05/2019 14:15

I was expecting something really awful. What a relief.

cardibach · 09/05/2019 14:15

Incorrect! Damn it

Kelsoooo · 09/05/2019 14:16

Wait there are people who go without socks even in the winter?

Celebelly · 09/05/2019 14:16

Socks last here too!
