And no fights over who is wearing the nicest outfitI put dressing kids the same down to laziness
And Iād be the first to do it as itās just so handy to add two of everything to the basket
Unpopular opinion but I think itās adorable. I love seeing myself and my sister dressed the same as a child. Also theyāre always well presented with lovely clothes. Now I wouldnāt do it all the time but there is something very sweet about it.I just find it kind of wasteful buying identical outfits for two girls so close in age. Maybe not so much now with another girl recently added but Aoibhin couldāve passed Hanorahās clothes down to Liobhan when she grew out of them. She can still do that sure but I canāt see her having Liobhan in the same clothes (hers and then Hanorahās identical version) for the guts of two years.
I reckon I'd do it too! My friend dresses her 2 daughters (15 months apart) the same most of the time for the sheer handiness of it. She also doesn't then have to consider if 1 is wearing something cuter/nicer than the other I have zero time for this one or the sisters but the clothes thing isn't a major issue at this age in my opinion. They'll be well able to state their minds about how they want to dress themselves before too long. That's when the hassle startsI put dressing kids the same down to laziness

Completely agree with this, my girls were close in age too and I dressed them the same . I mean how do you choose which child get the cutest outfit. I had friends who had girls after me so always passed on their clothes to them .I reckon I'd do it too!

If I had two of the same gender Iād def do it. But like others said, for special occasions/the odd time.Unpopular opinion but I think itās adorable.

Iād be v surprised if Hanorah doesnāt have an opinion on what she wears by now. I have a boy who just turned two. Heās a non stop chatterbox and v vocal about what he wants to wear! (Iād assume Hanorah has a drawer full of pretty dresses though so whatever she chooses is prob v fancy!!)I reckon I'd do it too!

I would hardly call that work. Its not like she did a shift in a supermarket or on a hospital ward.Aoibhins arnotts love was problematic. She gave birth 5 days ago. A wellness guru should be recovering and taking time out to rest, recover or go out eat a meal but not āgoing back to workā. Aside from sending out the wrong message as a wellness guru. It also reeks of white privelledge tbh. Look at me doing it all!! Yeah but what about the fact you have most of your family there to mind and hold your infant while you do this?! How many women canāt āwork work workā because they have no support system?? Ugh I really liked these girls but Aobhinns fakeness is killing any respect i had. Like she didnāt preface the live with anything personal or even a disclaimer like Iām managing to do this with support! Anyway best of luck to her but itās a very outdated style in my eyes
While I agree with nearly all of this, especially the importance of postnatal resting - like she preaches about bloody wellness!! I think calling āwhite privilegeā here hurts the cause. Is she privileged to have familial and financial support? Yes. But this is not white privilege specifically and we need to be careful not to throw the term around so that it doesnāt lose its meaning.Aoibhins arnotts love was problematic.

Oh give over and stop reaching, would you!!!! And stop being so patronising towards women of colour.Maybe best to term it just privilege then. Either way you wouldnāt see many women of colour able to do a live a few days after giving birth unless they had the supports she has. The same goes for women from lower and socioeconomic disadvantage
