Nope…my kids never did this.

My used to dress himself in his uniform then pj’s on top for a while. He was quite young and I remeber I had a big laugh and thought he was quite clever

This makes me feel better about myself! So many times we see Facebook and Instagram posts where the house looks perfect, the kids are immaculate and the parents are immaculate. We don’t know what shortcuts they take, or whether they have a housekeeper they hide away when the camera is not rolling. And it always leaves me feeling inadequate and like I’m failing. It’s important to remember that what we see in posts and reels isn’t what is really happening. Whilst I commend her for being honest about her shortcut, this wouldn’t be one I’d take, unless she was having to get him up at the crack of dawn. Unfortunately when you start kids with a « bad habit » it becomes hard for them to break.

Little odd, but if it helps their morning routine then it can’t be a bad thing.

Each to his own. If nothing else works and this does, then this is what happens.

Who are we to judge anyone.

I have no problem with the idea of doing this occasionally, but I’m a bit doubtful about it as a regular thing.

Lazy? Far from. I know children that have gone to bed in their school uniform just to get them to school.
Don’t judge others if U haven’t been in their shoes

We don’t always know what people are going through so we shouldn’t judge what they do to make there life a bit easier.????

Never heard of this before but if it works for you do it. I myself like the routine of shower/bath, pyjamas then bed. Clean uniform in the morning. I like being clean and fresh when I go out the door in the morning and I’m sure my kids do too.

Haha I have thought about this but before the school holidays my daughter actually slept on her school uniform the next day she got up done her hair and was ready lol I was stunned she was Like mum I got ready quick didn’t I hahaha kids

Pretty clever hehehe

This isn’t something I ever did with my kids. Everyone is different and I hope Ms Rachel doesn’t lose any of her followers because of being honest.

Yeah that’s a hard no from me

Oh no, just no, sleeping in clothes you’ve spent the night in……I just couldn’t do it. I had a bed wetter also, so not a great ides

I have never done this, and I don’t think it should be done regularly. Once in a while? Maybe.

It is setting up bad habits for later in life in my opinion.

each to their own when it is not really a serious issue.

I’ve never done this. Wouldn’t the school uniform be very creased? And uncomfortable? We would just have it ready from the night before to put on quickly and easily in the morning.

  I agree; prepare clothes the night before and have them ready for the morning routine.

I have never heard of this before reading this article. We all love the ritual and routine of a warm shower or bath before getting in to cosy PJs for a restful sleep time. This routine brings closure to the day.
