IS this really inappropriate for a jr high school kid to wear to school?

The outfit actually looked appropriate to me; especially given the fact that it was 86F (30C) and the AC in the junior high was not working well outside of the front office. How could I be so blind as to have missed the fact that my daughter was dressed as a harlot, and presented a danger to all the boys in the school? I read "Great Expectations" once. Just because the school might champion some Dickensian imagery does not mean they must bow to them all. What vile boy-crushing monster had my daughter become, and why couldn't I see it?

I began to think : "Luckily the school administration can look at her and see her as a provocative female," but then I thought... no... that is extremely creepy. I tried to think: "Luckily the school administration can look at her though the eyes of hormone-addled teenage boys to see her as provocative," but then I thought... no... that is weird-creepy.

Seriously!? People dress like this at work. I don't understand how this is in anyway inappropriate. Are they pissed she's not dressed in a burqa?

These people have way too much time on their hands.

What momma is not telling us is that the daughter had the skirt hiked up to where the belt looked like one of Michelle's "boob belts'.

She's dressed fine, as long as she doesn't bend over and fall out of her shirt...

My daughter wouldn't wear something this low in the front as a freshman in high school, but I'm sure other kids her age would.

Her shoes are kind of offensive.

Looks pretty ordinary in the pic, maybe a transparency issue, looking at the hem of the skirt. The top looks fine in the pic, too, but in the flesh may have looked different.

With that blindfold on, how's she supposed to see the blackboard?

Blackboard is on my list of banned words. It's "chalkboard".

Do they still have blackboards and chalk?

Oh how horrorable, no airconditioning. I went to grammar, jr. high, high school, college and college summer school with no air conditioning and no fans with tempertures of 100 degrees some days.....and the girls looked better than that.

A/C is really nice, but people were a lot tougher (and thinner) before it entered every home and business.

Compared to what I see kids wearing at my daughters high school...that's pratcially a nuns habit.

One thing is for sure. She has the liberal, curmudgeon, facial expression down pat.

I think that the outfit is cute and appropriate for most school dress codes, so I have to wonder if she was wearing it differently with the skirt hiked up, if the principal was over-reacting too it, or if there is a straight out lie somewhere in the story. I would like to know what the school rules say, it is possible that skirts must hit the top of the knee or lower, in which case, yeah, this skirt might be a little short. That rule might be a little strict, but if that is what the rules are, then the school was in the right.

Our schools in Las Vegas close down until the A/C is fixed when the temperature is above 93 degrees and the inside temp is above 88 degrees. Something like that...

I understand in the dead heat of summer, but come on people, buy a few fans.

Yeah, I don't see the problem either. The rule on skirts/shorts in my girl's school is fingerlength ie when their arms are down by their side , the skirt must fall no higher then the fingertips--for most girls that midway between knee and hooha. On tops, no overabundance of cleavage and no strapless or spaghetti straps.

I don't see the problem with what she's wearing either unless the skirt is perhaps sheer and she thinks wearing a slip of some kind is old fashioned.

OH for all that were not even born in the Kenedy era.

Before Pantie hoes no less.

Rose Kennedy was reported to have had a fit with the length of Jackie's skirts. Story is she objected to Jackie's skirts as when she bent over from the back Rose could see Jackie's garters.

As I look back I cannot remember a time when my skirts did not hit the top of my knee. [ or my own mothers ] Grandmothers skirts came to just below the knee.

Come the Mini skirt fad I had just one that I only wore to parties and never to work. Remember the knee length boots with the short skirts worn in the 1970's and early 1980's ?

This little girl is dressed as the kids did in school 50 + years ago.

Somewhere down the line I was told that one could tell the economy of a country by the length of the woman's skirts. The better the economy the shorter the skirt.

This is a real

for me, when do we go back to ankle length skirts to please the Muslims, or just make all sexes wear Poopie Suits ????? Unisex as the Chinese tried to do.

I thought I'd look up the names of those in the school adminstration, saw the names Bill Clinton and Anthony Weiner, and then I said "Oh, it's OK then."

I guaran-damn-tee you she did not look like that when she showed up at school, unless the school has a uniform policy.

This is entirely a bogus stick-it-to-the-man moonbat setup.

Besides that it looks like HELL run amok. Theres nothing realy wrong with it now days.

Hopefully DSS is on their way to remove this child from the DUmmies home before any more damage can be done.

Karin · « **Reply #23 on:** May 24, 2012, 02:40:09 PM »

Like EC, I find those shoes highly offensive.

There's more to this story than we're being told. Why is she wearing a smirk? Maybe she's like the couple of girls who went to my husband's high school, who removed their underwear before class.

I know what your talking about Karin, I bet the girls sat in the front row of the class in Math and the male teacher gave them A+ even tho they never did home work or passed a test.

I can attest to having passed math because my cousin did my home work and our teacher a female knew I was dating her brother.---------Came back to bite me in the butt years later when I had to try to help MY kids with Math, new Math of the 1970's-------Then later on I had to learn math for Nursing and later every other job I had.

From what I can tell of the little girls skirt, it does look like she has either a lining or a slip underneath. And this is not a pencil skirt, for her to hike it up it would bulge out in odd places.
