A mum’s viral tweet highlights a major problem with young girls’ clothing

The struggle is most certainly real.

A mum's tweet has gone viral after she complained about young girls' clothing. Heather Kaczynski tweeted the other day that she's having problems with her 3-year-old's trousers. No matter where she buys from, they never have pockets which can be a major deal for a little girl who wants to collect some trinkets. She tweeted:

"PLEASE PUT POCKETS ON GIRLS PANTS. omg. My 3yo is SO ANGRY when she doesn't have pockets or the pockets are fake. "She has THINGS TO HOLD, like rocks and Power Rangers. She's resorted to putting stuff down her shirt. come on. pockets for girls please."

Since she tweeted last Friday, the post has gone viral, with many parents agreeing with Heather:

I have to hold my 3 y.o. son's rocks until we get home.

And because I'm big on pockets (8 on my jacket, 5 on my pants, and I'm carrying a backpack for the 3y.o.) it takes time to find them again. There are also half a dozen rocks and sticks sitting in the car trunk. — Moaz Ahmad (@yyzMYA) April 22, 2018

My girl refuses to buy shorts in the girl section because "they don't have any treasure pockets." May she always value pockets full of rocks so highly.

At 4, my kiddo had a pair of pants she always wore backwards because there were functional pockets in back and stupid sewn up nothings in front.

Before I became a dad I didn’t realize how much parenting involved rock inventory management. Pockets in kids clothes are non-negotiable.

And to really drill her point across, she later tweeted clothes designers have a "hungry" market for pockets.

Apparently all it takes for a tweet to blow up is to complain about lack of pockets. Come on, capitalism, give us pockets. You have a hungry market here! ?

Do you all have the same problem, mamas?
