As a kid, did your mom ever make you wear an article of clothing that you absolutely hated?

1 Answer

Answer :

One Halloween my parents waited to long to get me a costume and I had to wear a Laurel and Hardy costume. Yes, a plastic mask with both faces and a costume with ½ a character on each side. That was awful and humiliating. I don’t remember how old I was, maybe 2nd or third grade. Both my parents are dead now so I can’t ask them what the heck they were thinking. After a devastating experience like that it’s no wonder you hated that shirt!
