no knickers

[freephone]

dd went to school yesterday with no knickers and it was pe. How funny is that.

[DalmationDots]

DD used to swim for a club from when she was 8, she would put on her swimsuit over her knickers and regularly then forget to do the knicker trick!!

Either she would come onto poolside and I would notice her knickers poking out and dash like a mad woman over to send her back into the changing room, or if I wasn't paying attention, she sadly would have a nasty shock when she got changed after the swimming session!

She never seemed to learn from her mistake, it happened quite a few times...worst was when she did it at school swimming first thing in the morning, she didn't want to tell the teacher and so went knicker-less all day. Silly girl!

I now know all the girls do it but I'd never seen it before. It's most peculiar if you haven't seen it before.

[MagicBaguette]

Pagwatch it's called The Knicker Trick and its been around for many years!

My DD spends half her life in a leotard or a swimsuit.
She has a weird technique where she puts the leotard on over her pants and then takes her pants off. It's quite a site.

As a 6yr old I was really shocked when we were staying at someone's house and their 2yr old didn't wear knickers. The 1st time my granddaughter and her friend did PE in reception they took off their knickers before they put their shorts on.

I once went to work with no knickeers on (unintentionally).

i thought it was funny as did the colleague who lent me some money to go and buy some pants from Woolworths.

[Pagwatch]

Yep, probably terrible mothers Weetos

[morethanpotatoprints]

Come on OP, not remotely funny.
Some stuffy buggers on here.

I think its very funny.

[Editededition]

You have my sympathy, OP. Some of the critical comments here are a tad unfair.

I have a DD who dedicated a considerable portion of her time (aged 2-4) to removing her underwear. I would make sure she was fully dressed and good to go.....turn around to get my handbag....climb into car ....arrive at nursery....and discover that she had no knickers on. Again!!

• at parties
• the cinema
• PIL's

Everywhere we went, she would find a way to be an underwear free zone on arrival.

She had actually outgrown the phase by the time she went to school, but at the time it seemed never-ending. She tells me now that she finds the small tags in bras and knickers very irritating & itchy, so perhaps that was the problem!
Didn't save my blushes.

[iloveweetos]

pag what can we say..we are terrible mothers!

Dd never wears knickers (she's 4). They irritate her and she doesn't give a hoot so I've just left it at that. Completely pisses me off when people comment on it. Dn would be mortified though (same age), that makes me sad. If you're ashamed of your body at 4, what chance have you got...

[Pagwatch]

Oh utter what bollocks!

Until thy ave gone in with no pants, it doesn't occur to you that they might be fully dressed but with no pants on!

there is some heavy duty sanctemonious lemon sucking on this thread.

[PyjamasNotBananas]

I don't find it funny at all. Yes it's good she's independent. What's not good is that you didn't think to check she had everything on. She's 5 ffs.

[Sindarella]

My mom had 10 of us to get ready for school, none of us went without pants.

What a strange thing to start a thread about.

[freephone]

ur didn't let her go to school commando. 4 dcs to get ready for school each morning its hectic its messy and its real life. I don't think she will be therapy for years as some of you think. As for it not being nice for other people to see a bum well I hope we are not all so easily offended.

[DorothyGherkins]

We used to have a spare box of kids knickers at the school where I worked, all sizes - it was quite a common occurrence.

[plipplops]

DD (yr 2) came home from school the other day and said she'd had no pants on all day, think she normally wears clean ones to bed and keeps them on for the next day. Had slept naked the previous night so just forgot in the morning. She's a super sensitive child so I thought she'd be mortified but she didn't seem bothered in the slightest, said she'd told her 2 best friends but they were good at secrets. I think it's really common (and kind of sweet as long as nobody picks on them about it)

[tallulah]

Yes it was the commando bike riding (but we do the squidgy thing with DD (6) too)

[Poledra]

I trust you were laughing at the commando bike riding, tallulah, and not shocked at my desire to squidge DD3's bottom?

[tallulah]

Poledra I just spat tea all over the pc (and me) reading your post. Rest of the family are like

[iloveweetos]

My DD went to school once with no knickers on. I didnt know until she came back and was getting changed and had someone elses knickers on! I asked her whos they were. and she replied 'my teacher gave them to me because i didnt have any on and she saw when i was sitting down' luckily her teacher did this discreetly.
I was gobsmacked but DD wasnt bothered in the slightest!!!! So now i check EVERY morning!

[Poledra]

I don't think it's unusual either - one of little girls in DD1's class arrived for school on her bike one morning. As she got off her bike, she told her mum that there was something wrong with the bike as her bum was sore. A quick check revealed the lack of knickers which explained the discomfort on the bike. We all thought it was funny...

[Pagwatch]

Yy. Small bottoms are hard not to like.

[Pagwatch]

Getting changed in a hurry after swimming and gym seemed to result in occasional pant omissions too.

[Pagwatch]

I don't think it's unusual actually. Dd was getting herself dressed for school at 4 and I never thought to check she had pants on until she forgot them. Several of her friends did it.
None of them were ever teased, let alone for years.
