DH managed to take DS1 to school with no jumper or coat. DS1 is planning to walk home today (I will be at the school any way so could give him a lift if its raining)
Should I take a jumper into school for him?

DH says I shouldn't as he needs to learn if he doesn't take a jumper he will get cold.

Hmm, he's quite little to be expected to remember without prompting, especially as it's one of the first days of proper cold weather and he probably can't remember how cold he was last March!

I'd take a jumper/coat, and tell DH to remind him about it in future.

Depends on distance for you to go and for him to walk.

But if you can give him a lift anyway I probably wouldn't bother.

My 10yo regularly underdresses for school, partic at the moment as it's sunny and she equates sunny with hot. Last week I did drop a cardi off for her when collecting DS at lunchtime but I wouldn't have made a special journey. Tis 5 miles for me though.

I would take a coat or something in. My ds is nearly 10 and he is SOOOO forgetful. He certainly doesn't do it on purpose.
