I'm on the other side. I don't think it matters much at all, and I will let my kids choose their own clothes just as I let them choose their hair color, but that is not the norm on mothering (nor the norm in most parenting circles - I mean not many of us were allowed to wear what we want or to cut our hair how we want by our parents; I wasn't even though I had pretty liberal parents. Some of it, I think, is how we see our kids as a reflection of ourselves; my parents, for example, thought they raised us to be, like themselves, immune to "shallow" teenage/mainstream culture and were not too pleased when we embraced it with gusto).
