Dress code matters - even for kids

Took my boys to Sunday service in their khakis and polos today. You could see the respect in how people greeted them. Too many kids running around in those athletic shorts and t shirts looking like they just rolled out of bed. A man takes pride in his appearance. I don't care what's trendy or comfortable, there's a right way to present yourself. Start them young with standards.

I appreciate the message here but I'd push back a little - my son feels just as respected in jeans and a t-shirt if he's confident and happy. That said, there's definitely something to be said for dressing up for special occasions.

This resonates with me. There's a certain discipline that comes with dressing well and it does affect how people interact with you. Been teaching my boys that too.

Khakis and polos look sharp, no doubt about it. We do something similar for church and holidays. My kids actually like it because they feel like they're part of something important, not just dressed up.
