[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old REFUSES to dress properly for winter. For a long time, I was of the thought that he would be put on jeans and a sweatshirt when he got cold, but another autumn has rolled around, and he's outside in 40-degree weather in a t-shirt and jeans waiting on the bus.

This is the ultimate in natural consequences and the ideal thing to eliminate as a conflict since we all have many other conflicts to deal with that we can't ignore. They aren't in any danger andit's a self-solving "problem" that they will solved, when they need to solve it. You're mom is a nut.[/quote]
