Just currius if your 10yo boys wear cartoon underwear? Mine does and still likes them. I just think he is kinda old for that. Maybe not Just currius if your boys or girls do.

I wouldn't worry about it chances are he will stop wearing them when he is ready. My dds don't wear them...but I dont' think I've ever bought character underwear for them. I just always bought something else. My kiddos still watch cartoons and have cartoon folders for school. They will stop using them when they are ready.

Not here. DD stopped wearing them around 6 and I think DS hasn't worn them since 4-years-old. I started buying the kind with totally encased elastic because it irritated her very dry skin. She loved them and since the character underwear doesn't typically offer this, she just stopped wanting them. DS just wanted to look like daddy. He prefers solid colored boxer briefs with totally encased elastic. Hanes gets a lot of our business these days lol.

I've never bought character anything for the kids, but DS 10 does still have some with trucks, etc. on them. He is clueless and does not care. If they're too tight, he asks for new ones, but that's it.

Matthew doesn't, but I'm pretty sure Alex still did at 10. I wouldn't worry about it. At almost 14 it has been a long time since Alex stopped.

Not here. My son stopped wearing them when he started Kindergarten and switched over to colored boxer briefs. (not white). Last year 8th grade, he switched over the regular boxers.

DS is 11. He wears plain colored boxer briefs. I think he stopped wearing character underwear around 7 or so.

My 7-year-old recently told me he was no longer going to wear that kind of thing; everything Superhero or Star Wars went to Goodwill... My 11-year-old wore SpongeBob underwear until about a year ago, though. I could see him doing it now as a joke.

Not here. My oldest son, now 13, stopped immediately after entering 1st grade where the boys all went to the BR together. My youngest, now 10, won't wear them past preschool-probably due to having a big brother. Both were boxers and dislike "whitey tighties".
