AIBU to expect my DS14 to wear a coat?
I don’t think I am, it’s bloody freezing but he simply refuses. He says coats are not cool and no one wears one.
Every day he goes out in just a hoodie with his friends and comes home cold to the bone.
He sometimes calls me to pick him up after he’s left his friends because he’s too cold to walk home.
I’ve begged him to choose any coat from any shop that he’d be willing to wear (after him deciding that his Uniqlo puffer from last year is soooo uncool) but he is refusing.
Does anyone else have this with their teenage DS? What do I do? Any suggestions of coats that your teenage DS likes? We are going away for Christmas and it will be cold! Not to mention skiing in February which I’m now dreading if he refuses to wear anything other than a hoodie!
I know people will just say let him crack on and he’ll learn, but I don’t want him moaning whilst we’re away that he doesn’t want to walk around and site seeing because he’s cold. It’s also hard to watch your child turning blue!
