Do you like your kids to look nice when you go out?

[maltesers]

I know i am a bit fussy but i do like my kids to look well dressed. . .Anyone else the same? I havnt got much money and a single parent.
However, if we are going somewhere in particular they have to put on what i have got out. . . within reason. My youngest is 9 ys and he isnt fussy what i make him put on. . thank god. My older two are grown up now and away from home; so its up to them entirely and always from about aged 14 yrs. I hate my child to wear nylon football clothing. . unless he was actually playing footy. Socks have to match rest of clothes. .

I should make the most of it while they are little. Getting my teenager to put shoelaces in his shoes would make me much happier to be seen out with him!

I like mine to look clean and tidy - but most of the time they wear hand me downs, with 3 girls i dont see the point in chucking out clothes that have a lot of life left, so they all end up wearing each others most of the time. As long as theyre clean, tidy and coordinated i really dont mind although it can be a challenge sometimes seeing as my eldest dd has a taste for summer dresses all year round - and doesnt take too kindly to being told to get changed and my middle daughter has hair like a birds nest..... she has the crazy personality to pull it off though!!
