Threshold

If you're the parent of a little boy, you might one day fall asleep at ten p.m., only to be awoken a half hour later by your 13-year-old son, standing at the door of your bedroom, choking back tears as he tells you he doesn't like the new socks you bought him.

    Many children seem to fight the unnaturalness of clothing. Socks, underwear, belts...all those constricting things that we've somehow become used to. My daughter (8) still throws a hissy fit, when the seams of her socks don't fall just so...
