What To Do If Your Child Has Their Own Style
Long before your little bundle of joy was presented to you, plans for its future had been planted in your heart. Perhaps these plans included the professional world. A doctor, scientist or CEO of a large company, may have been on your list of careers to choose from even though you’re child was still playing with legos. Possibly, you saw your little boy or girl as the next Picasso with paintings in every museum or an astronaut headed to the nearest planet. It is normal for parents to make plans and dreams for their young children. As the months and years roll on, the personalities of these little people slowly emerge. Their likes and dislikes slowly become a part of the total package known as your child. Over time you may see signs that your new born has grown up with plans of his own. The hopes and dreams planted in your heart for them somehow don’t seem to fit anymore.
One of the first signs that change has occurred, may come when your once totally colored coordinated child runs down the stairs in what at first appears to be a collage of mass color confusion. As your heart suddenly sinks down into your stomach, you are barely able to scream out. In a voice normally reserved for intruders, you verbally march your pre-teen back up the stairs to change into the descent clothing purchased during the last shopping trip at Gap.com, Old Navy, or Banana Republic. What you have just witnessed is your child’s first stand for independence. It won’t be the last!
The fact is, this strange manifestation of independence, is really what you want to see in your growing child. It is part of the process. Someone once wrote that parents should strive to give their children roots so they can develop wings. This saying implies that parents need to concentrate on the building blocks to real character that will allow the child to become a strong adult. Values such as respect for your fellow man and right and wrong give children strong internal skills. Stressing consequences for their actions and developing age appropriate house rules go a long way to planting the roots that will go deep enough for the child to take off on his own wings. With that in mind, introduce your child to parent and child friendly stores like Justice For Girls, Limited Too, and Sierra Trading Post. Stores like these are sure to keep both you and your child appeased.
When your child feels free enough to develop their own clothing styles, it shows a couple of good things. First, it shows leadership. It says they are comfortable in their own skin. It also says that they know what they like and don’t have to be intimidated by peers. A parent who sees their child taking steps toward independence should give themselves a pat on the back.
That said, there are clothing issues that might need to be discussed ahead of time. As you observe the apparel of your child’s friends, bring up any dislikes you would feel uncomfortable with should your child adopt those fashions. Clothing issues should be discussed before they become a battle ground in your home. Family concerns such as the sudden adoption of only wearing the color black or showing too much flesh are issues that need to be resolved in a calm atmosphere. Take on each issue as it comes. Be open minded about style changes. As we know from experience, style changes at least every generation. Just as Yoga clothing from Gaiam has become popular and Sports Decorations from Fans Edge are now instyle, one day clothing that you like will be in style again and your kids will be wearing it!
