My 13 year old daughter refuses to wear shorts in the hot humid weather and insists on wearing long pants & jeans are summer long. All of her girlfriends & her sister wear shorts everyday all summer long and they are always teasing her why she doesn't wear shorts too and they are alway asking her how she can stand wearing pants & jeans all the time. My daughter is not over weight and has nothing wrong with her legs. She Is always complaing to me that's it's so hot out that she's hot & sweaty . I've told her over & over again to start wearing shorts and she'll be cooler. I have asked her why she doesn't want to wear shorts and she's says because she's feels naked & like everyone will be staring at her legs. I've tryed to explained to her that their is so much comfort & you will be cooler wearing shorts in the heat and that you actually stand out more wearing pants & jeans, when everyone else is wearing shorts. I mean she's just about the only kid who doesn't wear shorts in the summer. We went the Mall and I was picking out some new pairs of shorts for me and my other daughter. and I told her to pick out some shorts for herself too , but she refused to even look at the shorts on the racks. Yesterday, I picked up my daughter after school. I noticed all the other girls are wearing shorts, I mean all of them, She's the only girl wearing long jeans. I told her again when it's 90 out and 90% humidity
wearing pants is riduculous. and that your not fiting in. Any advice ? My older daughter and my sister think I should make her starting wearing shorts, they say it's for her own good
