I absolutely agree. See my reply to above. It is heartening to know that when President Clinton was extolling the virtues of public school uniforms to the country in a national address and wasting taxpayer money propagandizing it with his famous Manual, he FAILED. I believe this means there is still hope for a "free" country. There is no substitute for parenting. Kid's will naturally try to get away with what they want, it should be just as natural for parents to create boundries and enforce consequences. Kid's coming to school in unacceptable attire? Call their parents in and hold them responsible, too. Maybe then the excuses will end and the rest of us will finally be able to chase those pesky minor government officials out of our closets.
