wiggles concert..

[Guest guest]

I think that in this instance, everyone at the concert will be only

interested in seeing the Wiggles and having a lovely fun time. No one is going

to

really notice or care that your child is " too old " to be there. There will be

tons of adults along with their children... honestly, no one will think

twice... and even if they DO, who are they to judge you or your child?? What

makes your child happy is what counts here. Age is irrelevant. What about if

you see a grown adult in the supermarket, riding on the cart... have you seen

that ever??? When you do, it makes you smile, even laugh along, as you know

they are having more fun than the other stuffed shirts who watch jealously,

wishing they could do it too!!! Sometimes we are so concerned about what other

people think, we forget to feel what we think.

In this case, if your child is in Jr. High or HS you would not send them to

school wearing a Wiggles shirt, but if he would enjoy going to the concert,

go for it!

Hi everyone

I agree. Whatever makes your child(ren) happy, let them do it. I plan on

taking on one more trick or treat outing this year even though he will be

a freshman (he's short so can pass for a much younger child). If and

Kristi want to come along before they go to the school Halloween party, they can

come too!

As for the Wiggles shirt, I would wear one and it has been 32 years since I

was in junior high.
