I notice that when speaking about allowing kids to dress the way that they want, most of you have focused on promiscuous or offensive styles. What about creative dressing that is appropriate? I would say dress codes are a good idea, but let the kids have fun with their physical expression.

Not saying that "all" students wear offensive styles, but by what I've seen what my son's girlfriends wear, seems they need more, much more fabric on those tiny lil skirts and tops they sport about in.

I think it is those who do wear the (promiscuous or offensive styles) are the reason why schools would even consider uniforms. Seems their "creativity" is way above what might be considered appropriate. I am all for being "creative", but give me a break. I think girls that show up in class with their "breasts" half hanging out and/or their skirt lengths that land right below their "bums" should be sent home to change. And the guys who wear those huge, baggy jeans that look like they are advertising their brand of underware, should also be sent home.

Times have changed a lot since I went to school. We were not even aloud to wear jeans and t-shirts to school. We had a "dress code" to abide by and if anyone wore anything that wasn't within the guidelines of the "dress code", students were sent home..

oo geesh, I think some schools even have "smoking lounges" for students. Lordy.. Lordy.. If anyone was caught even having cigarettes in their purse or pockets, when I was a student, they be would expelled from school for a week..

Also "in my day" we were taught to "respect" our teachers. Not like today as the "students' rule. off topic here so will stop..
