[quote=Anonymous]I don't know how this thread went so far off the rails to the point people are talking about underwear, but let me just jump in and say I'm pretty sure my kid went to kindergarten once without any underwear, just pants. He's 9 years old and I still ask him pretty frequently if he's wearing FRESH underwear. Yesterday we came home from sports and he cheerfully went up to take a shower and wash his hair... and proceeded to come down wearing his sports clothes. Have you judgmental people ever actually spent time around any elementary-aged boys? I'm sure some of these coatless kids left it in the car. Or it's sitting on the floor mat right by the door when they ran for the bus stop. Or many of them have coats with them, but they are wadded up at the bottom of the backpack. Or it's sitting in the locker, where it's been for 3 days because he keeps forgetting to bring it home. Or mom or dad asked about the coat 3 times that morning and finally gave up because they've already been late for school 10 times this year and there are 3 kids to drop off and every morning is a battle.[/quote]
