[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok. Serious question. Those of you who have a problem with this, what danger are you afraid of exactly? I've searched all around and can't find any illnesses in babies that can be caused by such short exposure to the cold. It's not a cold enough temperature at a long enough time for frostbite or hypothermia. So honest question, what problems are you concerned about recurring from such short exposure to the cold? [/quote] I am a 23 year old adult and I would not go outside in these low temperatures without a winter jacket, scarf, and gloves. Even dressed like this I am still freezing in 15 degree weather. As an adult, I am much more capable of keeping myself warm than a baby. It's not that I think the baby is in any grave danger but she can't be comfortable and if I wouldn't go outside without a jacket/blanket, then why would I send a baby outside without one? Because I don't think there is any imminent danger I would probably not turn the nanny in or do anything about it but my opinion that she should have a jacket/blanket on stands strong. Honestly, I think that part of the reason why so many people here don't see a problem with it is because a lot of you are probably not as familiar with really low temperatures as the OP (in NJ) and me (in PA). [/quote] I'm the above pp and I'm in NY. I've mostly been walking around with a coat but usually not hat or scarf. I personally am bundling my charges up. But the thing is I wouldn't interfere with how another nanny who I dont know (as in the OP's scenario) is working unless I thought the child was being endangered, which I don't think is the case here.
