Nor do I.  And the PPs who beat up on OP for this are the reason so many kids are growing up unable to cope with life.  So they got drenched.  Maybe next time they'll wear appropriate clothes for the rain.   [/quote]

Or learn that wet clothes, while uncomfortable, aren't the end of the world.[/quote]

I agree. If she did all she could to persuade them to wear things that would keep them dry, then she did well already. They should learn that it's no to bad to get wet. (My kids went out in the torrential rain to play after school. I know it's not the same because they could change clothes after they come in. But why didn't OPs kids listen to her about what to wear?)

I think the problem OP will face is the environment she's in. If all the other kids at school are gettting driven to the bus or school and thus arriving dry, OPs kids will feel extra resentful. Sometimes we do have to conform our principles to fit our environment a little. Though it's also good for OP's kids to set a good example for the other kids! I bet deal still has a lot of kids who arrived wet, though those may not be OP's kids neighbors?[/quote]
