Coats aren’t cool
We had our first snow, today. Not much, just a brief flurry in a fierce wind that looked eerily like a snow globe scene.
On a brief afternoon walk from the office down the street for a coke, we saw the middle school kids headed home. Many were without coats. Coats aren't cool. I remember that all too well. My boys never wanted to wear their coats.
Here's my sure fire, guaranteed method to get your teenager to wear his or her coat.
Let them go to school without it. Shortly after school starts, show up
at the class room with your teen's coat. Interrupt the teacher.
Excuse me… Oh, dear. There you are. You forgot your coat!
NOTE: If your teen still refuses to wear a coat to school, have him tested, immediately. It may be a sign of a severe learning disability.
