Kilt(s) with kids at school.

Big Dave;

I look at it this way, I'm cooler then any parent at my kids school. Bigger then most of them also. I wore my kilt to the school a couple of times, and yes, I received stares from the children, and some finger pointing, but as far as I know, my children have never received any grief for it. I also take my children to school on the motorcycle, (one at a time of course, and not while wearing the kilt) and I allow them to take their helmets to class to make sure all the other children know that my children ride daddy's ZX-6 Ninja to school. The little girls in my oldest sons class smile and wave at me. They also Giggle when they say..."Good morning Mr. King". If your a cool dad, you can get away with it. If your not...I think the children will get some flak from classmates.

I'd like to believe I'm a cool dad , at least (so far) my kids think so.
I've been talking with my daughter about if my kilt wearing bothers her, "I love your kilts Daddy" she said "when are you getting a tan one?" . She's a smart and strong little girl, so I'm not (too) worried about her in school (or life for that matter). I'm proud of my kilts and my heritage and I'm very glad that my family supports me (mentally). She has no problem with me wearing my kilt all the time, so with that I feel much better. Thanks for all the imput, guys, it helped with my decision.

Glad to hear your made your decision, Big Dave.

My family also supposts my kilt wearing. I wear my kilts when I drop my son off at school. Cheers
