Exactly my point.
Him wearing a kilt at this time is right on so many levels.
It is easy for mothers, they have the maternal instinct built in. They are hard wired for it. Oh sure, men can do child rearing and do it well, but women do it instinctively.
But there are times when the best parent for the job is the father. This is one of those times. He is seven years old and wants to be like his dad. Kilt wearing is something special that his dad does and he wants to do it as well. Bonding.
If you and he wear your kilts for "guy time" and do "guy things" together and if you both go with your wife and have "family time" and do "family things" together he will not be laughed at, because he will be with an adult.
The time will come, all too soon, when he will want to listen to outrageous music, drive dangerous vehicles, have unsafe relationships with women who are old enough to be his grandmother but dress as if they charge by the hour -
But...
For now, he looks up to you and thinks you are a superhero and he wants to sit on your right hand and bask in your glory - dressed like you dress.
I would not hesitate - buy him his first kilt.
Regards
Chas
