'I make my teenagers wear dresses when visiting grandparents - it saves a row'

A mum has been shamed for making her teenage daughters wear dresses when visiting their 'old-fashioned' grandparents. She explained how it's easier to make them wear 'girly clothes' than deal with the backlash when they show up to their house in trousers.

Taking to Reddit, she said: "My in-laws are what you would call traditional - they are very old fashioned. They seem to think the world should have stopped 50 years ago, and think everything since then is evil."

She went on to explain how she visits her in-laws on a weekly basis with her husband, their two daughter, aged 16, 14, and son, 10, because they live close by. But her eldest daughter has started resenting her grandparents for their "backwards" view on the world - and has vowed to "never speak to them again" after she turns 18.
