Yeah but shoes don’t fit the same after washing them and sometimes very uncomfortable. Hopefully she washes hers to so she knows.

I never understood the back to school clothes thing. I always bought my kids new clothes when they outgrew theirs. And here in California they go back to school and it’s still hot but in another month it’ll cool down and then they need new winter clothes because last years don’t fit anymore. It’s all about corporation greed. They manipulate you into spending money because you feel you have to. Use your brain and do whatever you feel is best for your kids.
