Daughter's objection to the kilt - need advice.

[AJBryant]

The kilt is new to her senses, even though I have explained that her last name is a Scottish name, despite being more known as a popular band of soup.

Gee, Mr. Progresso, I don't know what to tell you. At that age kids are just paranoid. What she probably needs to learn is that kilts are cool -- cooler than anything SHE can do -- and that YOU write the rules.

BTW, don't mention to her that the problem is she hasn't developed her frontal lobes yet. At ten, she might misconstrue the statement and NEVER want to be seen with you again at all regardless.

Then again, knowing some ten-year-olds I've seen, that might not really be a bad thing.
