[QUOTE="Xxx, post: 553009, member: 15278"] While I understand what you're saying, if the child has an actual phobia of people dressed up, saying it's fun and trying to slowly introduce them to it isn't going to help. Not that you're wrong at all, just that it's something people should keep in mind (I have that phobia and I am regularly being prodded into situations where I am uncomfortable and upset because people don't understand how afraid I am, and they think I'm just not trying to have "fun" - and I amn't a child, so I can express myself, but a child may not be able to.)
