I'm sorry there are others who have had to deal with this, but I'm also sort of glad we're not the only ones! Thanks everyone for the advice.

keet - the tags issue reminds me that I had to cut out all of DS's tags a couple years ago - he would scream "too itchy!" He also wouldn't wear shirts with snaps at the neck, which made things quite difficult because he has such a ginormous head! He occasionally complains of these too things, but for the most part he's not too bugged by them. I guess that means i should be hopefull that this too shall pass.

I have talked to DS4 about the whole issue when he's not freaking out, but he's a rather stubborn child, and he just says, "I'll still just take off all my clothes if they get wet!" I tried the evaporation experiment, and he said, "the water will still evaporate when my clothes are off." I guess we'll have to keep working.

I have also tried freaking out myself when I spill something on myself, but he just thinks that's funny...

I guess I'll be lugging the spare clothes around for a few years.
