[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 488267, member: 6546"] I'm saying it is entirely possible that SOMETHING is wrong....something very real...but socks and pants may be a symptom and not a cause. My child used to have huge rages over socks and shoes and baths and shampoos and I approached it as a sensory issue. For years I tried to appease her and soothe her by buying products that wouldn't cause any irritation - to no avail. Finally, it turned out that she had emotional issues. IOW - she was feeling overwhelmed by her emotions with no way to really explain or express what was wrong....so while she did not "pick a fight" per se - she DID end up venting those emotions by having these kinds of meltdowns. So while I was focused on shoes (because the child was saying the shoes were the problem), the REAL issue may have been that the child was afraid to go to school, or not feeling well that morning, or there was a kid in class that she didn't want to see....etc etc etc So my advice was meant to help Quirky look beyond socks and pants...
