Why do some parents let their kid walk around with a shirt covered in tomato sauce?

Question

i hate when i see a lil kid covered in c**p n food that they ate 4 hours ago. why cant the parents just change the kid's shirt after theyre done eating?

Answer 1

I agree, and the nose that has 2 weeks of boogers caked on it is another lovely one. I understand kids noses run but come on when it is built up on their like a d**n its been too long in between the wiping. LOL

Just because they are kids does not mean they have to look like they have never been bathed. There is a big difference between a dirty kid from playing and a kid who has not been cleaned up from eating, from a runny nose etc.

Answer 2

that is stupid and i don't think you have kids if you do they probably don' get messy because they are afraid you'll bi*ch.kids make messes with everything so i would be changing clothes all day .i am not saying i let my kids clothes get to 5 pounds heavy with c**p but why i am going to make 3 more loads of laundry for myself..?think things through before bi*ching

oh and i usually take my kids clothes off before they eat or use a bib like when i am in a resturnt and don't want to take their shirts off

Answer 3

well with some parents that take one extra out fit and maybe they already used it and its all they have . 2 they forgot an outfit because they were in a hurry or just plain forgot people are only normal u never know i dont think the parents were like o look how messy its cute lets go on

Answer 4

Well, it depends, sometimes if you're at a restaurant and a child spills something on themselves, you're stuck if you didn't bring a change of clothes. I am a firm believe in bibs. They don't take care of it 100%, but they help.

Parents that just let their kids walk around that way when they are able to change their clothes, I think are just flat out lazy. I wouldn't let me kids walk around in a dirty shirt all day...yuck!

Answer 5

If my son is at a restaraunt and I dont have a spare shirt and he gets messy despite his bib theres nothing I can do, but I really hate for him to be seen messy. If they are eating at home and the parents take them out messy then they are just lazy.

Answer 6

Agreed! I hated it! Keep a change of clothes in the car to change them if you go to a resaurant when they're too old for you to have a change of clothes in a diaper bag.

I hate it too when the hair is unnesicarily messy. THere is a difference between windblown and rats nest!

Answer 7

1.  kids are messy

2.  changing to clean clothes guarantees another stain

3.  laundry piles up quick

4.  they are tired!

That being said, I usually change my kids clothes before leaving the house.  If they get dirty in between- that's just the way it goes.

Answer 8

I do believe kids are messy and if they get a little stain on their shirt i probably wouldn't change it, but i know what you are talking about. It does annoy me when I see kids with ridiculously gross shirts on. and I will let my kid be messy around my house, but when I go somewhere I would change their clothes and bring a change.

sometimes it has a lot to do with getting up of the couch and grabbing the little one.Not thinking about extra clothes.And getting them dressed to go out to the mall.Putting them in their car seat (screaming to get out)... Then driving to the mall with a tired child (crying) throwing his toys at your head while going down the road.Finally about 1 minute you get there he is asleep .You have to wake him up again crying because he didn't get his nap out .He is now hungry.you feed him he makes a mess.And you see your friends coming .what now?
