One pssible versin (A)
Many parents chse their children's clthes, r at least advise their children what t wear. ls it right fr them t d s?In my pinin, parents shuld chse children's clthes. Their advice is helpful. Parents can help us chse the right clthes because they have mre experience. It is part f their jb just like making sure we can cat a healthy diet. As they are usually paying, it makes sense that parents shuld ffer advice.If parents dn't help us chse clthes, we may nt wear things wisely, like a pair f shrts in the cld day. Besides, parents can teach us t dress prperly t shw respect at sme special events.Chsing clthes can be a tw-way effrt. Children say what they prefer but parents have the final decisin. It's nt just abut what yu wear but hw yu wear it.
One pssible versin (B)

Chsing clthes can be fun and creative, and allws yu t express yurself and develp yur wn style.
