Can Someone Explain……
Why do manufacturers skip over the size 9 for children?
Seriously, look at The Gap and search by size. Where’d the 9 go? And Old Navy? Same thing. It’s not just those retailers either. The chart on the left? That’s from Garnett Hill. There IS no size 9 for kids there either. Why is this?
I can deal with this size 9 thing when it comes to tops. Boys tend to like their shirts and tees to be big. However, I think the age of 9 is a little young for the jeans falling down look with the boxers sticking out. Not sure I can even handle that look when he’s 17. This is my personal opinion, however. I realize some of you may like that look for your 3rd graders.
With a size 8, the length is too short for my little boy-wonder. A 10, the waist is too large.
I get that the age of nine is kinda ordinary as far as childhood goes. They’re pretty much set into a routine with homework and activities. The hormones are still tame and they’ve got a hint of independence. And as far as parenting….a nice little breather on the stress factor. But still…they still need to wear clothing.
Where are the size 9 pants??????
OMG, I just bust out laughing. This is so true!!! This is how age discrimination begins!

I just had to buy my son new pants for church yesterday. Size 8 is too tight in the waist and a little too short. Size 10 (which I ended up getting him) fits fine in the waist, but is a little too long.

That is just plain strange. Thank God I have a while…no wait I am still wiping poop off bottoms. I think maybe I will be happy with Miles looking like a gangsta as long as he wipes his own tush.
