kilt or not to kilt?
My son is 11 years old and is graduating grammer school. He is so happy...but he wants to wear his kilt to the ceremony. Mind you we live in the southren part of the U.S. At first I was happy to see him embrace his Scottish heritage...but I am also confused. I dont think he understands
the mixed emotions that may arise. I would hate to sit in the audience and hear people chatter and gossip. I dont want to be like..."he doesnt know any better ..but you do." I feel like it could be a bad experience for him. If he pulls it off and is proud no matter what people say, then I will be proud. But would if he cries when we get home? Can anyone give me some good advise. There are so many ignorant people. I just dont want him to get hurt and never wear a kilt again.
