What an example to set to their children. Why can't they put on a track suit/leisure suit if they want to 'dress down'. I think the headmistress was right.

I would often see a lady walking up our road to the local shop dressed in what looked her long nighty with a slightly shorter coat over it . It looked so obvious she was in her nighty that I felt a WHAT !!! and she ain't fooling anyone

See her later still wearing th same coat but without the longer dress !! showing

One time too I was getting the Sunday papers at about 9.30am and a young lady drew up in her car outside the shop and was obviously in her nighty and dressing gown and slippers and she came in the shop and bought newspapers and milk and bread and was quite unworried about her dress. I thought blimey that's not on even though she was dressed it didn't seem right

I definitely wouldn't drop a child off in my nightwear - I sleep naked :-0

I also have 'inside' clothes (old and comfy, crocs, minus bra) and 'proper' (newer, but still comfy, with nice shoes/boots, and includes a bra) clothes.
I never venture further than my garden in my 'inside' clothes :-D

I certainly wouldn't drop off a child in my nightwear...there's no room :-D :-D :-D :-D

I wouldn't be brave enough to drop off a child in my nightwear.

no one would dress like that round this neighbourhood as the local psychiatric hospital is just across the road and anyone seen out in night clothes is assumed to be from the hospital and promptly taken back there!!!

Brave enough to tell the mums they should buck up, or brave enough to have a go at the head for dressing too well? :-)

We were in Morrison's and an old lady was shopping in her nightie
I often see Mums dropping their kids off at school in their PJs

I would always get dressed in my day clothes
before taking baby Satan to school
As I wouldn't want to show him up :-D

I have just been reading in the paper about a headteacher who felt she had to send a letter home to all the parents due to the number of them dropping off and collecting their children from school wearing pyjamas, dressing gowns and slippers. Not only are they showing up at the school gates but also to Christmas shows and parents evenings dressed in night attire.

The parents who dress this way have now taken umbrage and are claiming the headteacher dresses too well for school and will continue to dress in night attire no matter what example it sets.

What do others think? Would anyone be brave enough to do it?
