WTH? This story is just too strange for words.
When our kids were 7, they wore what my wife and I told them to wear. There was never any argument.
And, what a stooooopid headline. The guy was not cited for forcing his son to wear the jersey. Rather, it appears he was cited for restraining the boy with tape.
duct tape, no doubt.. bringing Chessehead families together for a long time.
LOL, I cringe at the thought of some of the outfits that my siblings and I would put together at that age. Although my parents had general rules like ‘wear old clothes to play in the mud’, we were pretty much left to our own devices, which resulted in some dubious choices. All in all, I think it helped us a lot (especially my sister and I) when we got older and girls would start making comments about other peoples’ clothes, and I was appalled at the idea that people would wear specific clothes just because someone told them to.
