  I cannot even imagine! I guess if he was ever lost, his parents never had to think twice about his clothing description. Plus, his photo would be a perfect match too. I hope he is not given a speedo that he becomes this attached to.

  I'd like to say "no" that's just wrong -- but some days I'm just too dang lazy to care! Josh has put on a t-shirt after his bath, worn it to bed and then all the next day and to bed the next night.

  And you know, you gotta pick your battles. Clothing is not one I care to fight -- but I do prefer the clothes to be clean (although it's not always required) and I would have hoped the shirt would fall apart before hitting the 1000 day mark!

  Proof that you have to pick your battles. I have to think that clothing choice probably isn't a worthwhile one to fight. So yeah, I'd probably not bat an eye.

  According to my mother-in-law, my husband would only wear blue clothing during his entire 3rd grade year. If it wasn't blue, he wasn't putting it on...which made me think,"Gosh, what a brat!" My husband turned out to be a nice guy, so I guess I would just roll with it.

  my 3 yr old will ONLY wear striped shirts. any kind of stripes doesn't matter. I REFUSE to fight about his clothes there are much more important things like clean teeth and manners to worry about

  My daughter had 5 t-shirts all the same. She wore a different one everyday but I was so sick of seeing her in them green t-shirts but it was not worth an argument over. She eventually moved on to black t-shirts.

  She must have saved a lot of money since she had no need to buy shirts.My son has a favourite socks he wears it everytime he has a match he doesnt want it to be wash,but whenever he goes to sleep my mother would wash it and put it back before he finds out.Please dont tell.

  My daughter clinged to my old flannel shirt...one a guy used to wear. And she gave me her leather skirt in return. We swapped clothes back and forth a lot.

  O yes...what does she do today? She works in a NUCLEAR PLANT!

  Solving the problem of having to wash the article of clothing daily I purchased several shirts so I can wash "it" only a few times a week. My son isn't that obsessed with his clothes but he still has his favorites.
