That was pretty much a one time lesson.
Weather won't kill em...just let them be. They won't die in the rain, or freeze to death.
They need to learn that you know best, because you're the parent. |
This is so true for an average, normal child. Children with sensory issues can care less (of course we don't know for sure that is what this child has or not) but, if it is a sensory thing, she won't wear long sleeves or jackets at all, even if its 30 below, she won't care. they just don't feel the same way a "normal" child feels
