I've been there before...

no, especially if there was something wrong with the old pair.

The old pair only came down to five inches above his ankles! I was too sick when we left TX to check what the kids packed & he didn't pack

The new (to him) jeans I bought him a few days before we left.

It's so funny what embarrasses teenagers: he was perfectly fine walking around in extreme high waters, but changing into new pants? Too much

It was also beyond the pale to come out of the changing room to show us the jeans.
