For a mother, there are no days off – at least not for getting dressed.

Posting to a thread on MãesNet a mother – who goes by the username of ‘Lamin the fly‘ – shares his disgust with another father who confessed to keeping himself and his children in pajamas if they spent the day at home.

“A mom just posted in one of my single mom groups saying that she never takes off her pajamas, even her kids, if they are staying at home for a day.

“She asked if other people do the same. Many people responded by saying that they also don’t dress themselves or their children if they don’t plan on leaving the house,” she explained.

The mother asks the other parents in the group if she is being unreasonable.

“Am I being irrational in finding this a little confusing?

“It’s fair if you’re sick or occasionally, but whenever you’re at home?

“Who wants to sit around all day without washing the clothes you wore all night?

“Also surely you are setting a terrible example for your children?

“Maybe I’m just an old dinosaur, but I think this shows a shocking lack of standards.

“Feel free to tell me I’m old and out of touch.”

His comments sparked furious debate in the group, with other commenters not hesitating to leave ‘Lamin the fly‘ I know she was really ‘out of touch’, and someone even called her a ‘bully’.

The commenter responded by saying: “It may not be your choice, which is fine, but you are being unreasonable by describing this as a mix, it makes you look like a bully.

“I know a lot of people who do this and none of them are ‘mixing it’.”

The mother quickly defended herself by saying, “I don’t want to look like a bully.

“I meant more from a personal point of view, that I would have felt sweaty, smelly and basically poisoned if I sat in my pajamas all day last night!”

Perplexed commenters asked why her pajamas were so dirty if she hadn’t left the house.

Another chimed in saying, “Oh, behave yourself.

“We’re judging how people relax and unwind right now.

“Nothing anyone does in their own home is exempt from comment and criticism now.”

There were some who rose to his defense saying, “I don’t like sitting around in my pajamas, I like getting dressed.”

Others took a less critical approach, saying: “I don’t think it’s a mix and I don’t judge people who do it, but it’s not for me.

“I feel like I didn’t start the day properly until I was dressed.”

While another explained the benefits of pajama day saying: “[I let the children] This sometimes means they have busy lives between school, activities, and extracurricular care.

“On Saturdays they usually stay in their pajamas until we go out. They must have showered the night before and cleaned their pajamas [on] so they are not dirty.

“I usually wear ‘home clothes’ like leggings [and a] t-shirt,” she confessed.

How often should you shower?

How often someone showers is often a personal choice, often depending on the type of day they’ve had or are preparing for.

A doctor would recommend a daily bath to promote good hygiene.

A dermatologist would say that daily showers are counterproductive and, contrary to popular belief, actually dry out your skin.

Dermatologists therefore recommend showering just a few times a week to allow the skin and scalp to generate the necessary essential oils.

There’s no single answer, but most agree that showering a few times a week will make you feel and smell great.

How often you shower really depends on your lifestyle, your skin type, and what makes you feel good.

Most parents agreed that the comment was unreasonable to judge those who enjoy the occasional 'pajama day'
