Went to private academy and yes, we did have neckties, blazers etc. We didnt give a rat’s ass if the public schools in our district hated us. Only the bleeding hearts did..

Loophole for expensive clothing manufacturers:

One branded coat free, available only with the purchase of an ultra-expensive banned coat. Hang up the banned coat and use it for non-school events and wear the free coat (that can only be obtained by buying the expensive coat) to school.

Dress them all in Mao suits. That should fix the problem.

The world is going to be a total shithole in a generation or so.

I weep for kids nowadays.

Will they make the attractivestudents ugly or wear masks?

Will they make the fit students wear fat suits?

This is 221st century “education”. Doing no one any favors at all.

I came from a family of 8 children. My parents could not afford expensive clothing for us. I can remember during high school some of the other kids had nice clothing, while I had hand me downs. It did bother me some but if I really wanted something I would babysit or earn my own money to get it. I made me appreciate fully what I have. I never despised others for what they had. I don’t think they fully appreciated what they had. I feel I had the advantage later in life because of my situation. (And I have had 7 wonderful siblings to share my life with!)

“Be a real man kids
Wear a nice Hawaiian shirt blue jeans and flip flops when it’s cold
Act like you don’t care
Chicks LOVE IT”
