Thank you for reminding me: don’t let the haters win. Also that we don’t make decisions based on what other people think,

The hat really is a fine-looking hat. You did an awesome job helping him to continue wearing it!

Godo for you, and better for him. It’s a good thing to learn early on, that’s for sure! I agree with the other commenters, that is a cool hat. He should look at the REALLY bizarre ones out here in cold-country!

We have hat haters too. My son won’t wear his normal hat to school anymore and it makes me sad. He is keeping it to wear at home.

Of course, there is snow on the ground here and the hat they were making fun of cost $40… but I feel his pain. And yours.

This made me hurt for you, and your boy. Kids can be so mean, and it’s awful when it’s directed at your child. My daughter has been on the receiving end a few times and oh, it’s awful. So awful. Good for you, and good for The Monk – it is a fabulous hat – I love it and would wear it myself.

Don’t let the haters win!

I was bracing myself for a really strange hat, to inspire that kind of meanness. But that’s a really freaking normal hat.
Kids are mean.

I think I’ll send him a new hat.
