Speaking of raising children, do parents still hand down clothes from child to child, or do they just buy all new clothes now?
When I was a kid, I used to get boxes of clothes in the mail, shipped to me from my cousin Tazteck's mom. After I grew out of them, they were boxed back up and sent back to his little brother. I can tell you, those clothes were seriously out of style, and had been patched several times by the time they got them back.
Let me tell you.....it's tough to pass along pink pants to a boy and get him to wear them. But, the jeans....YES! The t-shirts (in appropriately hued gender neutral colors) are handed down.....and YEP! I even pass clothes along to friends' children.
Things are too expensive not to do that.
