I used to believe that when you grew out of clothing that you would have to wear your parents' clothing to the store to go buy new ones since your old ones didn't fit anymore. Now, my mom never put her clothes on me to go shopping, but when I was getting too big for something I'd still get really nervous about the embarrassment of being seen in public with her gigantic clothes on.
