Nah, you pick your battles. If the kid wants Nikes because that's what everyone else has, then get him Nikes. I heard 10 years ago that Sketchers are for toddlers and old people... and from what I've seen that perception hasn't changed.
Like it or not, we are social animals and fitting in is important, especially for children. When my daughter was a toddler we made it a point to NOT expose her to Paw Patrol because it is just blatant targeted marketing to children. It was a point of pride for us to be able to walk past Paw Patrol branded apple sauce and not have her begging for it. And then we sent her to preschool and after the first week she came home sad that all the other kids were playing Paw Patrol but she didn't know any of the characters, so she couldn't play. That was a real shitty day for me as a parent because that was my failing. We started letting her watch Paw Patrol (as well as other non-PBS kids shows) because pop culture is important. Same with fashion... not every kid needs to wear Nike, but they should be aware of what the trends are and have a say in what they get.
Edit: I'm glad Lemmy makes it easy to block trolls.
IDC about your BS explnation.
I despise people like you.
You are a weak consumer slave keeping these horrible practices alive by being weak and giving in.
I have no sympathy for your slave mentality.
You should be ashamed.
You are all that is wrong with the world.
