How often do you buy clothes for your children. Do they accompany you while shopping and choose their accessories?

Much as I would like to go on a shopping spree with my husband and our daughter either for her or for me or for the three of us, I just possibly can't because of lack of sufficient funds. I'm the only one working for the family and my husband takes care of our only child and stays with her at home. Much of my salary goes to paying off our loans with credit cards, monthly house rent, meals, and my transportation fare. I feel engulfed with paying every loan we made and I'm sad that our daughter has to take part in the hard times we're going through now. She is turning three next month and we plan to buy her a new dress, at least for her birthday.
If my memory serves me right, it's been over a year now since we shopped to buy clothes for her. It's really not our priority as some relatives and her godparents have given her some new clothes last year; christmas time in particular. Personally, I'd like to erase all our debts and not have her inherit these. It's admittedly tough but with the Lord's help, I know that we will get over the clouds one day and experience the happiness of sunshine and abundance.

taking children while shopping is a big pain, one thing you have to carry them around, they wont be still for a mnute, their will feel claustrophobic in malls, its too diffcult, and the purpose of your outing is going to be wasted, so beter not take children while shioppong

When my daughter was very young.She never care to shop.Its just me who always think of buying her something like clothes and sometimes she even don't like them and never wear them.Now shes into her teen stage.Things changed.She love to shop all the time.As a mom i always try to provide everything she wants.Sometimes we shop alot but sometimes also i just buy something thats new for her like a couple of blouses.I try to do it every week or 2 to 3 times a month.
