Enh, it was a bit long (which is one of the reasons I found it meaty

I like your note. Since the whole point here is about seeing who the kid
is and what she prefers rather than pressing her into any pre-made box,
the advice needs to be filtered through the child's personality. When I
was little I would not have cared if my play-dress was ragged, but you
would have, which would have required slightly different approaches for
each of us.
