[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These people want their very young children to get outside every single day no matter what the weather is. Kids are ages 9 months and 2 1/2. The parent feels that since they loved being outside all the time as a child, their kids should be the same way. I am trying to do as they ask but with our harsh winters it is turning out I'm having to try to bundle them up like crazy, and even then I can only manage to stay out for 15-20 minutes before being overcome with cold...I can't imagine what the baby must be feeling :( it's been below 30 degrees F for several weeks (colder with windchill) and we have still be playing outside as they ask. I am more than happy to take the kids outside but im not sure this is safe. The older child often says he is "frozen." And to top it off his parents lost his gloves and have yet to buy new ones! (Their exact words were "he can do without gloves for now"). :shock: [/quote] Tell them to order new waterproof, insulated gloves on Amazon.com immediately. They know better than that if they live in the Midwest where winter is 5 months long. [/quote]
