The ONLY way to deal with this is to HUMILIATE him.Put on your coat, order your son to don his, HOLD his hand all the way to the bus stop, and STAND there waiting with him (still holding his hand). Announce loudly (in front of everyone) , that if he doesn’t come home in his coat, he’ll be missing various loved possessions—- PERMANENTLY , until he saves up enough money to BUY them again from money earned from a part time job.
