[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is wearing a coat in the winter “the right thing” or “dressing appropriately”? Because it’s cold and if you don’t wear a coat you’ll be cold. There’s not a dress code for the months of December to February, for Pete’s sake. If a kid isn’t cold without a coat, whether because they run hot or because it’s 50° out despite being the week before Christmas, being coatless isn’t inappropriate. This seems pretty basic. [/quote] Exactly. We are not in remote Alaska. It's generally well above freezing. My kid might bring his coat to school but he is NOT wearing it. He hasn't worn it a single day this year during recess. He's been sick 0 times. He's fine. But take your concern about child safety and please use that intensity to lobby for gun control so I don't have to worry about him being murdered at school. That's a much bigger issue, I think we can all agree.[/quote] Well above freezing like today?[/quote]
