There is often big debates about children’s fashions. Many adults think that children should not worry about fashions and should wear what they want to where as some parents like to ensure that their child is dressed to fit in with the latest trends.

Some fashions for adults may not be appropriate for children and each parent has to decide for themselves what they allow their child to wear.

If you find that your child is becoming a little obsessed with fashions and with labels then you may want to start to teach them about the value of money. Some parents offer their child one pair of trainers for example, but say if the child wants a more expensive pair then they need to save up their own money to put towards it. This will make the child really think if they want the item or not and if they want to spend their money that they may have been saving for a while on a pair of trainers.

Surely the most important thing is that your child feels comfortable and happy in what they wear rather than trying to make sure they are wearing the latest fashions?
