Well. Seeing as how around here I see grown ADULTS out at the
WalMart, grocery store, doctors office, pumping gas and walking to any such place in their PJs. I think it is a disgusting trend of laziness.
I get ill seeing what some of the college kids around here go to class in.
I speak with an old college friend while I wait to get my daughter and I am always describing what these students are wearing. None of our professors would have let wearing pj's and sweat pants to class fly. We would have been told not to return dressed like trash. And we were at a community college! In fact he was kicked out of our accounting class one day for not taking the time to put on clean clothes. He had stayed the night with me and hadnt packed for it. To make matters "worse" the professor had seen us out together the night before.
I never had my daughter in PJs all day long. Even as an infant. I got up, she got up, and I dressed her for the day. Even if we were staying home.
As a former daycare provider though. I feel for you. I had one little girl that was dropped off daily, after having been fed breakfast. In her pjs with food all over her. I mean come on. Get up a bit earlier and feed and then put the kid in clean clothing. For a while I would wash/dry and fold the clothes because mom would send her with clean outfits. Then I got tired of being her laundry service as well. And stopped doing it. Luckily the girl was still too young to walk. But if she had been older we would not have been able to go anywhere because she wasnt dressed for play.
Amen!!! I am also tired of seeing grown adults and young adults alike going around in PJ's. I think it is out of respect for those around you not to have to see people in what they were wearing to bed. I never went out of my house with the babies dressed in pj's or jamma sleepers. I always had them dressed.
I agree with many of the other posters. Don't get taken for granted and bless you for taking such good care of your grandbaby. You are an wonderful example to him and he will know what a real parent is like from you.
I would often do without so my kids had the proper outerwear and clean nice clothes. I often shop at second hand stores and still dressed them wonderfully on the cheap.
