Well, my oldest son is now almost 13, well, in a few weeks he will be 13...
in this past year he really has started finding his own style.....this means that his hair is slightly longer, and kinda styled fringe , and he started using black eyeliner and nail varnish, he likes his black skinny Jeans best, with lots of wrist bands and belts and has a trilby hat...
he looks utterly gorgous and it all suits him so much, so, I am obviously happy for him to wear whatever he likes and I just love he feels able to express himself by what he is wearing, I love that he doesn't feel he needs to "fit" in as such....I love his confidence,....you get my drift....!
Only thing that annoys me is that some people around us have made comments, i.e. do you think he is gay, blablabla....and tbh, I couldn't care less if he was....I mean....that is up to him, surely...I want hium to be happy and lead a fulfilled life, and that is it....(obviously I hope he won't get into drugs and crime....but that is a different issue)...
So...how do others feeling towards their Teenagers styles.....are you bothered about it, etc....
(Must say, I used to be a bit of a goth and stuff, so, possibly the reason why I think it is all quite within norm, lol)
