Vent: Clothing

[3rdtimesacharm]

That is rude of her to just walk out without saying goodbye and when you had not resolved the clothing issue. Does this child come in short now?? Where are you located, here it was 8 degrees this morning so not yet shorts weather!! I like the little ones in tights, legging, or capris when they are fairly easily stumbling. Nobody wants to deal with skinned knees all the time, that poor girl!!
Your reply was good saying that you don't expect her to buy new clothing, and her playing the single mother card was not necessary.

I have a clothing vent today as well, 2.5 year old and 1yr old siblings arrive this morning with no coats. Just rain boots, (which the 1yr old cannot walk in. I had to borrow another sweater off another boy for the 2.5yr old to wear and we had to go out during the 1 year old's nap as I had nothing for him to wear! We couldn't go for a walk, so it was just backyard play. So frustrating! I sent a message asking for hats,n mitts and proper coats tmrw. I think it was just a monday rush thing and mom probably just forgot, but last week they didn't have hats, mitts, slush pants, just the rain boots and windbreakers. Thankfull it is getting warmer all this week!!
