Because she's 11 :T My DS is in Y11 and has never once worn a coat to high school. My friend's son is 23 and he didn't either, so this is not a new phenomenon

One of mine will, he hates to be cold and put a rain coat (football training one) on today. The other simply puts a hoody on and lets that get wet so he is dry underneath;) 8 year old refuses coats already. They also can't leave them in cloakrooms like I used to at secondary school because they'd just get nicked so they have to carry them around from class to class all day and with your PE kit and bag of books it's too much for a lot of them to remember or be bothered with.

Still raining here. Put some stuff in the loft and got the fender down which I'm hoping to part exchange for a fire screen.

Then off for a bit of shopping, not in the mood but it is for birthday presents for the weekend so no choice.

Hi
Thanx PP
Mudbath - my 12 year old is exactly the same and sometimes my 16 year old is too!
Dustykitten - I think the fact they have nowhere to put their coats and have to carry around with them as well as their pe etc is the biggest problem - I know for a fact my 12yr old always moans that he's not taking his coat because he can't fit his pe and all in his bag too!

Well had my breakfast and chill time so need to get on now - have college tonight and I am becoming a hermit and not wanting to go out of the house - this is so not like me at all! I have to go back to work next week for serious fear of withdrawing into myself to be honest I will be fine though - hate feeling like this, used to be such a bubbly happy character. Sorry started whinging a bit then x

Ok - list:-

Dishes
Clear breakfast bar
Iron clothes
WM on
Clothes on line or TD
Clear table
Tidy living room
Hoover living room
Polish living room
Clean bathroom
Cook spag bol for darling family

Final Mind map

Shower,wash hair,dress and do hair and make up to make me feel nice

Town - Buy files and walk to college

Home - WM on
TD on
Iron clothes
Relax

Hmm better get cracking!
