I'm tired of fighting Penelope (my 4yo) on her clothing options for the day. It's getting cold in buffalo and shorts aren't an option when she spends most of the school day outside.
Do I force warm clothing on her or give her bodily autonomy to suffer the consequences of being dressed inappropriately? Note: I also don't want to suffer these consequences bc I assume she'll just get sick. And then everyone will get sick. Not really sure what the happy medium is here.

Ugh, feel you on this. If I can't influence them to make the right choice, I just pack extra clothes with them to school so that they have something to put on when they inevitably get cold. It's not ideal.
