I need socks!!

My 5 YO has this "problem" with her socks. She can't stand the seam anywhere around her toe. She whines everytime she has to wear them which drives me insane and I end up yelling at her to "just put the d*mn things on." I had this prob with my oldest several years ago and found some appropriate socks at Walmart. I bought some from there that I thought were ok but she's complaining. Has anyone else gone through this? Did you find any socks that worked? TIA

A friend of mine used to wear hers inside out for the same reason, apparently the seam isn't uncomfortable that way. It's worth a try.

My daughter went through a stage like this at that age. I just made her suck it up and eventually she stopped mentioning it.

Both of my kids went through that. My youngest is 10 and she still complains.

My daughter is the same way. I buy her very thin ankle socks and the seams are not that aggrevating to her.

Get some toe socks...that is for sure to drive her crazy. Then you can say, "see those other socks with the seam across your toes is not all that bad". Just a thought!!

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