Hypothermia has come up a few times but not frostbite.

A high school student may have suffered frostbite earlier this week in this area.

High school? How can that be. I thought this was strictly about elementary school kids.[/quote]

It is, but younger kids get hypothermia and frostbite even faster due to their body size. [/quote]

The wait at the bus stop is not long enough for either of these. Try again.[/quote]

Well now I know for a fact that you don’t have kids who ride the bus in the DC area!

It’s not a rare occurrence for school buses to be up to an hour late or even possibly not show up at all.

If you're letting your kid stand in the cold for an hour you have much bigger problems.[/quote]

Like needing to be at work instead of the bus stop and then having the scheduled bus not arrive on time without notice? Yes that is a problem but what exactly am i supposed to do about it?[/quote]
