have your kids wear appropriate clothing.

Exactly, I thin below 20 and you start to feel it but even then if you are seed appropriately AND moving you are ok. I grew up in New England and our rule was that we didn’t go out skiing I’d the temps were negative. Anything over zero, we went.

Exactly! Some people here are really wimpy about the cold, though. And I say this as someone from the south.

Op here. None of the parents were outside, just the kids. 6-13 year olds in elementary and middle school.

Do your kids play at recess?

I’m curious, do many kids not like cold weather?

We are in the DMV, not too cold not too snowy in these months either.

Your kids were still out of your hair and now their entertainment is gone. I’m in the DMV and no my kids don’t want to play outside when it’s 40. Do you let the neighbors play inside your home?

Stop being weird.
