EVERYONE can appreciate a day off when you finally get to just chill and do nothing but binge watch your favourite series.
Some call it a day off, while others declare it a ‘pyjama day.’

Posting in a thread on MumsNet a mum - who goes by the username of 'Lamin the fly' - shares her disgust about another parent who confessed to keeping herself, and the kids in pyjamas if they were spending the day at home.
“A mum has just posted on one of my single mother groups saying that she never gets herself or her children out of their pyjamas if they are having a day in the house.

The mum goes on to ask other parents in the group if she’s being unreasonable.
“Am I being unreasonable to find this a bit minging?
“Fair enough if you're ill or as a one off, but every time you are home?
“Who wants to sit around all day unwashed in clothes you've had on all night?
“Also surely it's setting a terrible example for your children?
“Maybe I'm just an old dinosaur but I think it shows a shocking lack of any standards.
“Feel free to tell me I'm old and out of touch.”
Her comments sparked furious debate in the group with other commenters not holding back to let 'Lamin the fly' know that she was indeed ‘out of touch,’ and one even went as far as calling her a ‘bully’.
The commenter hit back saying: “It might not be your choice, which is fine but you are being unreasonable to describe it as minging, it makes you sound like a bully.

The mum was quick to defend herself saying: “I don't mean to sound like a bully.
“I meant it more from the personal viewpoint that I would feel sweaty, smelly and basically minging if I sat around in last night's PJ's all day!”
Bemused commenters went on to ask why her pyjamas were so dirty if she hadn’t left the house.
Another chimed in saying: “Oh behave.
“Are we judging how people relax and unwind now.
“Is nothing anyone does in their own home safe from comment and criticism now.”
There were some who rose to her defence saying: "I don't like sitting around in pyjamas I like to get dressed."
Others took a less judgmental approach saying: "I don't think it's minging, and I don't judge people who do it, but it isn't for me.
"I feel like I haven't started the day properly until I am dressed."
While another explained the benefits of a pyjama day saying: "[I let the children] this sometimes, they have busy lives between school, activities and after school care.
"On Saturdays they often stay in pj's until we go outside. They will have had a bath the night before and clean pj's [on] so aren't dirty.
"I usually change into "house clothes" like leggings [and a] t shirt," she confessed.
