Why do the pre-teen and teen set not wear coats?

well im 15 and at my school we aren't allowed to wear coats so my view point is that why should we bring them if we only wear them for just in the car... because if we wear them at school we'll get a detention...

Coats For Teens

Hoodies are easy to to put on, move around in, and to a lot people, look better than just a big winter coat. In 30 degree weather kids in my school wear shorts. It's just what they like to wear. Just because they don't wear a huge coat doesn't mean they're cold. Also if your only gonna be outside for 5 min at the most, like walking to a bus stop or going from the car to the house, why would you need to wear a coat? They're just wearing what's comfortable and what is really needed for being outside for such a short while.

It's a teen thing. I wouldn't worry about it too much. I'm in my 20's and opt not to wear a coat at times because they are so bulky. I personally like to wear a scarf, hat, and gloves with my hoodie. Maybe suggest that to your husband.

Now when it's REAL cold and snowing I'll wear my jacket. Or if I know I'll be outside for awhile.

Hope this helps!

I don't wear coats when I'm going to school.

In high school I never used a locker, and it would be too much to have to carry around a coat all day.

In college I'm inside most of the time, so a warm hoodie works well enough.

In my opinion, they're just inconvenient.

I can't stand wearing big heavy winter coats, but I wear them because I want to stay warm when I'm outside during cold weather. I also always wore a coat during cold weather when I went to school.

Because they aren't "cool". Coming from a 22 year old, it wasn't that long ago since I was in that stage. At that age, girls are boy crazy (and they don't seem any better at my age). They want to flatter their shape and want boys to notice them. A frumpy Winter Coat hides their figure. So that is most likely why. They want to look hot. Now at my age I'd rather be warm and look a little bigger, than freeze my butt off so a guy will notice my shape.

whiile most of us are in high school that don't wear coats during the day..i tell my parents that i only have to walk to and from the car & the school is warm so there is no point in wearing one. but when it;s really cold i wear one to school now and i'm 14 years old.

it's like the same way with boots. i used to think they weren't cool but now i wear them if its cold so i don't get sick. and thats why most kids dont wear coats, because their friends don't and they think its not cool too.

hope i helped:D

I'm 15, and I hate wearing a coat.

I just don't like them. What they look like when on, how heavy it makes you feel, carrying it around at school. I prefer not wearing a coat - you are more free.

I never wore one when I was a teenager and I don't really wear one now at 33 years old. I wear a hoodie. :) It's too much to keep up with and gets in the way of everything you're trying to do. Plus...how are you supposed to show off your outfits if you're covered up in a coat? Alot of schools now aren't allowing coats inside the classroom. My best friend's daughter just got in trouble for wearing her coat while sitting at her desk. And that's in Minnesota!!!

PS: With teens...pick your battles. It could be alot worse than not wanting to wear a coat. If they want to freeze their behinds off, let them. They'll learn.
