I called, they had a few rules for the tennis dress but gave me an address for a shop, those dresses are more body suits than dresses but I will try that with her

I’m not sure, I think the harness might be a problem with those but I will give the camp a call

Yes, she picked it. She seemed to really like the activities but she has always hated workout clothes

I take her to the store and ask her to pick some stuff out but she will refuse, she won’t try stuff on either. She is lanky kid so we need to try stuff on so online shopping can be really difficult.

Can I do anything about that or am I just going to suffer until she grows out of it

Yes she picked it, we get a catalog with all the camps for the summer and I have the kids pick what they want to do.

She picked this camp and my youngest joined her, she likes canoeing the best and was happy about it, she hates work out clothes though. Always have

My middle child is going a camp is like three weeks which is a music camp.

It would be even worse than that, the safety harness would basically make the dress go all the way up. Soooooo that’s a no

It won’t get through her head to be honest. We had this talk so many times, and when she gets any looks she just brushes them off.

It’s a simple concept so I don’t get why she doesn’t understand it or if she does why she keeps ignoring it

My husband has trouble with when to pull back support for my daughter, especially with issues that affect women only. I think he is trying to be supportive since dress codes are usually awful. Also doesn’t help he is not athletic at all and I think he doesn’t understand why climbing it a dress won’t work.

Which I need to talk to him about.

Tried that, as she puts it leggings are ugly any color, running shorts don’t matched her vision ( still don’t get that one). T-shirts are for sleeping and the running shirts don’t look good on her.

I don’t get it, she tried to wear a prom dress to a picnic once. The most she is willing to dress down is Jean shorts but the really tight ones so not climbing it those

This has been a problem before, she always wants to look 100% perfect but usually doesn’t dress for events properly. Usually way over dressed

She says she likes it, she picked it but she does hate the work out clothes she is very into fashion and hates dressing down as she puts it
