Its not like they are taking advantage of a tragedy to extend their powers or anything. Also I have difficulty taking the opinions of something that looks like this seriously

That's a good way to ensure you're never a victim of DV...

Not until now. Classic, half the posters sound like TSF types, the others like mummy's boy mincers

@taniwharugby Not gonna lie, I did LOL at the one about not needing to be pulled off doorknobs.

see I think this mother did this the right way with her son, rather than defying school rules and fighting form there, they are complying and then seeking a review.

I think she should get a fucking grip. Your kid is 15 and at school. He has his whole life to grow a moustache if he wants. Next she'll be challenging the uniform rules, painting his hair blue, getting multiple face piercings and a tattoo across his forehead saying "school sux balls" - where does it end? I see no issue with a uniform and dress code policy that includes facial hair.
Hasn't she got better things to do and more important things to teach her kid?

@voodoo
guess the difference is from the similar issues in the past, is they wanted to change things while defying school rules, rather than this case, they are complying and challenging.Much better way to go about it.

It is a more reasonable course of action even though I disagree with the stance
-
@canefan I dont agree either, but the process is better IMO.
I didnt have the issue, couldnt grow facial hair at school!

I agree it's better than simple defiance. But IMO there is a huge trend of entitlement going on these days. This kid is being taught that if you don't like something, just challenge it. Not to try and understand why the rule might be there to start with, or maybe just to suck it up.
This might be a minor thing, but I reckon it's a pretty good proxy for the generation.

on the other hand...
how does one understand something without challenging it first? Why should we teach our kids to just "suck it up" because something has always been done that way?
I would have thought compliance, while challenging, and then the acceptance of the rule if you lose, is a pretty fucking great lesson for a kid.
