More MSE - DO buy him the boxers, it's cheaper than paying the fine for wearing a hire kilt with no knickers on....they all insist on it these days. (Obviously there's higher dry cleaning bills when the boys don't shake well enough... :lipsrseal )

if it's not a hire kilt, why not? No point buying them one till they're fully grown:D

It's cleaner with underwear and some hire companies insist on it. Also I he is not used to wearing heavy wool next to his bits it can be irritating.

Also tell him if he is dancing, put his sporran to the side, let him learn from my mistake in stead of making it for himself.

Two years ago, my daughter had an 'End of Year' primary school disco, which we walked to and which she cried about not seeing her friends for a whole few weeks until they all went to the same secondary school lol

We just sat on the playing fields all day drinking and having a barbecue, with the teachers, pausing to go the pub and lunchtime. Although that was 6th form so we were mostly 18 not 16.

What if its a disadvantaged kid or once with terminal illness that has been offered a once in a lifetime opportunity to be taken to their dance in a helicopter and not just a snot nosed brat showing off would everyone still be against it then?
