You are fighting with your 5 year old over socks? Let's get one thing straight here. You are the PARENT, she is the CHILD! Buck up and tell her "Get used to it, I am the parent, what I say goes and until you are no longer living under my roof or receiving financial compensation from me, you WILL do what I say." End of discussion.

No, it's not her shoes. She starts messing with the "balls" at the ends of the seam the second she puts them on.

I'll check the ones at Target. Usually I can open the package (without damage) and check the seams before I buy them. Thanks for all the great advice. Some of it cracked me up,

Maybe this is a stupid question but.... does your child HAVE to wear socks? Let her go without socks, problem solved.

Seems a little cold out for no socks but maybe thats just me.

My niece hated the seam on her socks when she was younger. We solved the problem by having her wear the socks inside out.

I love toe socks. I have a pair on now. My feet are so warm. My hands are frozen, though.
