You have the time it takes DS to put his shoes on to tell me

[Twiglett]

whether it would be totally wrong to get DS (6) the same pair of Doodles sandals as DD (3) has just got

Yes

thought so .. thanks

Or else no

yes

Or maybe it depends

Does he like them???

Why would this be wrong?

l'il ol' fence-sitter me....

i meant no!

why wouldnt they have the same?

does ds like them too?

depends, are they pink with fairies on them? if so might be best not to but if they're a fairly neutral colour no reason not to really

What are they like?

not if they are navy blue or something, why?

you cant go out twig!

you have to help malory!

if he'll wear them,yes

If they are neutral enough not to be obv girly and you know he will wear them then fine.

My DS is almost 6 and has definite views on what he likes and dislikes.

Is there time for a link?

What if they are pink with fairies but he would wear them?

depends on how big he is i suppose, if he's unlikely to be beaten up too badly by the other boys go for it. if he's a skinny wee thing might be making him target practice though

DD? wear fairies? wear pink and white shoes?

what? like she's a girl or something

oh no no no .. this is the child who insisted the face-painter did her face as 'piderman and throws a fit if I dare to take a skirt out of the wardrobe

although she has dressed up in princess / fairy clothes they are patently only for pretend

anyhoo he's got different ones and very nice they are too

I'm sooooooooooo glad its not just my DD who throws a hissy fit to get 'piderman painted

She does do it whilst wearing skirts though
