Parents are probably already gone, on their way to work. 2 paychecks pretty much mandatory to live in this neck of the woods. Being warm and free from frostbite must be the most uncool thing going these days... Then again, how warm do they need to dress when the bus stops at every house and little Johnny just has to go door to bus? But that's another rant altogether...

you are correct. Kids are no different than adults. No one in RI wears heavy coats etc anymore. I hear things like It's too warm in the store and school and I only have a short walk to school or the store and don't want to deal with a big coat. I see idiots wearing shorts and t shirts all winter.
I wear a heavy coat, I always seem cold. maybe I am getting old.
