[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In our family, kids are not in charge. I am also a ES teacher, and it’s quite clear which of my students run their families. [/quote] This. Nobody leaves the house when it’s that cold without a coat. It’s sheer parental laziness if the kid shows up at school half dressed. Then the teacher gets to hear the kids whining all day. Our school’s heat rarely works effectively when it’s really cold and we have plenty of kids showing up in hoodies and short sleeve shirts. We give them coats and they still show up without them. The parent says, “He doesn’t want to wear it.” Jesus. Ditto for nearly every other thing- brushing their teeth, giving up their technology to go to bed, etc. So we get to deal with kids who have teeth rotting out of their mouth, screen addicts, etc. [/quote]
