Would you take your kids to Skool in your Jim jams.

I'd go in my jimjams (although I don't own any), my missus does every now and then because she does shift work so literally gets 1hr in bed then drops the kids at school. I don't have an issue at all with 'Onesies' (sp?) as people wear them for the entire day so technically they are a fashion item and daywear. Just wish they did HIPPO ones for some of the flabbers you see at my kids school - women really DO go downhill after they've had kids!!!!!
 
Seriously how long does it take to put on a pair of jeans or tracksuit?
Taking kids to school in PJ's is just lazy IMO.
No wonder Jeremy Kyle is so popular.
 
I think it's wrong and pure laziness & shows a total lack of self respect.
It's an awful example to set your kids.
No excuse.
 
On a positive note, it seems the letter may have had its desired effect. Today there is only one woman turned up today at school in her Jim jams. She was wearing them with a green parka and red Wellys. 😂
 
Being from Darlo myself i can vouch this isnt just this one school where parents rock up to school in thier PJ's

Ive seen some stuff on FB about people belittling the area where the school is, but i live on opposite side (and often viewed as the more affluent) side of town and i can guarentee there's at least 1 mother every morning dropping thier sprogs off to school in PJ's. Does it happen in other towns?

IMO, i would never let myself or the mother of my children to do it. What does it teach them about daily hygiene? Roll out of bed and leave the house without a wash? nooo thank you!

Ahh, well, guilty as charged there. I work from home and it is very rare that I wash/shower before I take my daughter to school. I do get dressed though!
 
Don't think I can ever remember myself or Missis T taking kids to Skool in my jimmys but have seen other mothers do it. Since. Not 20 yrs ago. I can kind of understand it being done occasionally and the green parka red Wellys mum does have a reason why. But to turn up at shows and parents evening. I don't understand. To not have a wash I don't understand. So yes I do think it is a countrywide issue.
 
This is what happens when you start letting standards drop, one minute your relaxing the dress code and lowering expectations the next minute your chatting to your kids teacher in your PJS and slippers, it's a slippery slope.
 
I don't agree with taking your kids to school in pj's or onesies at all but the standard of school or schools within a certain area is irrelevant as I've seen parents at my kids school which is private rock up in pj's or onesie's. To be it sets an example for your kids and this is just wrong imo.
 
Just having a bit of parallel thinking but would owt be said and would people's thoughts be differant if you turned up at your golf club in your Jim jams. Bet someone on here has. 😁
 
I was in Dundee today and like Fish said earlier, it depends on what side of town or town!

Now that place is something else, if you ever wanted to see some inspirational sights then spend a day at Ninewells Hospital!
