Let’s talk numbers. The average family spends $3,000-$5,000 per year on children’s therapy. Add the hidden costs—missed work, transportation, emotional toll—and the investment doubles. Now imagine if therapy could happen every time your daughter gets dressed.

The Hidden Cost of Childhood Challenges

• Bullying-related therapy: $150-$300 per session
• Confidence building programs: $200-$500 monthly
• Social skills groups: $100-$200 weekly
• Years typically needed: 2-5

Total investment: $15,000-$45,000 per child

The Only for Princesses™ Equation

Our dresses range from $88-$125. Each one includes:

• Therapeutic scripts developed from 15 years of practice
• GPS technology (comparable devices cost $100-$300 plus monthly fees)
• Heirloom quality lasting 30+ years
• Character storybooks (value: $20-$30 each)
• Daily therapeutic intervention

COST-PER-WEAR BREAKDOWN:

Traditional Designer Dress	Only for Princesses™ Dress
Initial Cost: $150	Initial Cost: $125
Wears (1 season): 20	Wears (30 years): 1,095+
Cost per wear: $7.50	Cost per wear: $0.11
Therapeutic value: $0	Therapeutic value: Priceless
GPS protection: $0	GPS protection: Included
Generational use: No	Generational use: Yes
Total Value: $150	Total Value: $45,000+

The Compound Effect

When your daughter reads her hidden scripts daily:

• Morning while dressing: confidence building
• Moment of stress: immediate coping tool
• Bedtime routine: positive affirmation
• 1,095 therapeutic touches over 3 years

Compare this to weekly therapy: 156 sessions over 3 years

The Generational ROI

My mother created dresses in 1987. Today, my granddaughter wears them. Calculate that value:

• Original investment: preserved
• Emotional legacy: priceless
• Three generations of confidence: unquantifiable
• Family traditions created: invaluable

Beyond the Price Tag

What’s the value of:

• Your daughter standing up to her first bully?
• Knowing she’s GPS-protected every moment?
• Watching her touch her dress for courage?
• Passing these tools to her daughter someday?

The Therapy Alternative

I’m not suggesting fashion replaces therapy—I’m a therapist myself. But I am saying that therapeutic fashion provides:

• Consistent daily reinforcement
• Immediate access to coping tools
• Proactive versus reactive intervention
• Complementary support to professional help

The Smart Parent’s Choice

When you invest in Only for Princesses™, you’re not buying clothes—you’re buying:

• Peace of mind (GPS)
• Emotional tools (scripts)
• Family legacy (heirloom quality)
• Daily therapy (continuous reinforcement)

Because the best investment you can make is in her unshakeable confidence.
