The tucking is nice below the chest. Brings the eye in.
They are wearing what they want. I’m still pondering if that’s a good thing for them?

I think of the Stones? song. “you can’t always get whatcha waaaaaaayant”.

“They are wearing what they want. I’m still pondering if that’s a good thing for them?”

I have a somewhat laissez-faire attitude about what adolescents choose to do with their clothing and haircuts. If they are basically kids with good values, and they want to look like jerks, that’s ok by me. And, if wearing hideous goth outfits is the worst thing these kids do, mazel tov. They should grow out of it soon enough.

I have a son who during those years had very long hair which he dyed, serially, every color of the rainbow. Some other mothers wondered how I could possibly allow that. My response at the time was: hair grows out. He got that out of his system and it’s now very close cropped.

My son never got into drugs or fast women, or any of the other activities so attractive and readily available to today’s youth. His teen rebellion was played out with a hideous hairdo. We got off easy.
