Arggghhhh.
Is it really that difficult to send your child(ren) in the appropriate clothing??
I have one particular boy who consistently comes in a coat he is unable to put on (no hood, which is apparently his only frame of reference used to put on his jacket?!?), and shoes that are the wrong size. He and brother have no snow pants, either.
I have one boy who has a spring/fall jacket and toque, but no mitts that I can find, and definitely no snow pants.
It may not be minus 20, but it is still chilly and mucky, with some snow on the ground.
Another boy who takes 25 minutes to put on his outer gear, even though mom insists he does it all himself at home.

Today, everyone is going home wet and muddy.
(I *may* be a little grouchy, due to the children's Halloween-hangover behaviour. Maybe.)
;p

But my question is:how do I let mom know that she is buying the wrong shoe size for her kid? I'm talking at least 2 sizes too big.
I hate dealing with these stupid issues. I actually find it easier to say "Your kid is acting like an a-hole to the other kids, and we need to fix that". Just not in those words. LoL
