Worn out clothes – the modern day

by Mary Anne

Nowadays it appears that many kids are too lazy to “earn” worn out clothes the old fashioned way by buying new clothes and then wearing them long enough and hard enough to get the “worn out” look the honest and old fashioned way.  They want to go to the stores and buy clothes that look like they have already been worn out by someone who had class, who then donated the clothes to the homeless shelter, and when the homeless person died the clothes were then sent to a high priced retail store to be sold for $50- $80 to some rich spoiled kids who want to look like they had done something more than sit on their butts and spend their parent’s hard earned money on clothes that should be in the rag pile.  You can buy clothes that look exactly like that at the Goodwill store for $2 or less!

I think that if parents allow their kids to spend their money in that way, they should be ashamed of themselves.  What a waste of money, and what a terrible message to send to the kids – you don’t have to work hard to make it look like you worked hard.  I think it is a form of “cheating” and I don’t like cheaters!
