[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The temperature doesn't bother me, and I think a lot of you posters are outright lying when you protest that 41 degrees is freezing. My kid's elementary school sends all the kids out for recess if it isn't raining and the temperature is above the 32degree freezing mark.  What bothers me is the hour in which it was committed. However, like a PP posted up thread, what caused the mom to take this action?  Was the kid disobedient and refused to abide by a curfew, and the mom said " you want to hang out, then stay out ."

Why did the neighbor not injure the kid into her house?  I would have.  [/quote]

It's not freezing, but to put it in perspective, I keep my refrigerator set at 40.  And there is a huge difference in being sent outside -[i] in weather appropriate gear[/i] - to play during recess than there is in being looked out with no coat at a time when most kids should be in bed on a night that is near freezing.  I don't know about your school, but mine won't send kids outside if they don't have proper warm weather gear.[/quote]
