We would only get a weeks notice at my sons last school and it would be “wear your favorite sport jersey” 1. Jerseys are expensive and for a kid who’s going to grow out of it in a few months 2. I live in a small town so even if I wanted to buy one I can’t get it here in time.

I think at the beginning of the school year they should give everybody a list of all the future dress up days for the year that way we can be prepared.

As a former first grade parapro, I completely agree! I’ve seen kids be absolutely crushed because they couldn’t participate.

Imagine being the teacher on these dress-up days. Who knew a different set of clothes could turn a room into complete chaos 🥴 and don’t forget red ribbon week and the wholeeeee month of December. Oh, and Dr Seuss Week. 🤦🏻♀️

You should do an episode on the adult version of this…work pot lucks.. let’s work a 40+ hour work week and then go home and cook a dish for the pot luck when I barely got groceries for my family and barely have energy to wipe my ass but sure let’s have a potluck & cook for 20+ people I can’t stand and only tolerate because I’m paid to get along with them. NOT TO MENTION Brenda don’t wash her hands in the bathroom, smells like stale cigar and dog shit and has roaches crawling out her purse but sure let’s let her bring some food 🤨

We can make school fun by getting them off computers and in a field trip! I’ll pay for that lol these dress up days are ridiculous

Ashley 💕🐢 :
It breaks my heart when my daughter tells me she doesn’t want to participate because I always wonder if it’s because she knows we can’t afford it. Luckily I’m hella creative so I can usually pull something off, but still

I wasn’t able to have kids, but I swear all of your videos about kids sound exactly like something I would say 🤣 I somehow feel validated for my non existent parenting struggles. 🤣🤣

Amanda Hyles :
Sitting here watching this made me sad. My boys are grown and in college now. I would give anything to go back in time to absolutely panic on evenings before a dress up day. Enjoy it while they are small. Your heart will be broken as soon as they are out of the house 💔

Every year these dress up days stress me out so bad! I always end up having to go buy them something and cannot really afford it!
