Uniforms neither make kids well-educated nor addicted to drugs.
Yep. I was in uniforms from K-4 to 12th. They just making shopping and picking out what to wear for school an easier decision.
A study of the switch to mandatory uniforms in Long Beach showed that the overall crime rate in the schools dropped 91 percent when uniforms became mandatory. The rates of suspensions, sex offenses, and vandalism all dropped by more than 60 percent.
I am pro uniforms, it is absolutely necessary because without uniforms there is no serious education, children have not discipline, want to wear only expensive brands, make anything they want.

Shopping is much easier. Course there are other reasons too...

Wow, 91%. But, easier shopping is super important too.
Unless it was like my schools, where until you reached the highest grade, you had to wear a certain kind of uniform, and you had to buy it through the school. Cost a ****ing fortune, the private school mandated you buy a certain amount of items as well.
Money grabbing bastards.
We had to buy ours through the school and the cost wasn't that bad... but they did let us vote on which uniforms we wanted to wear and which colors. We were divided in grades and genders, so it was like 30 votes at the most.. not that big of a deal, but you knew what grade everybody was in by their uniform, the color, or jackets..

Local school board decides, with input from parents in the district.
I think it would help kids be disciplined. Right now schools and students are failing and I primarily attribute it to culture and a lack of discipline. I support school uniforms but I would be ok with having a professional and modest dress code.
Requiring a certain form of dress to force a change in culture and individual mindsets is fascist logic.
They're kids. Parenthood is fascism.
I think school uniforms are just fine. You are there to learn, not for a fashion show or prove who is the coolest. Uniforms do away with the need for an enforcible dress code etc. It saves a lot of headaches in the long run.
In the end we don't care what the "kids" want, that's because they are still "kids."
You are so sharp... you beat me again. I was JUST GONNA SAY THIS!
His kind of argument is like that other guy stating the school uniforms lead to no freedoms in society... get real.
Every now and then, I toss out the ol' "because I said so" to my kids, because they are kids.
Part of being a good parent is to be a parent. To many try to be a friend or something else and it just does not work.
I've seen worse from school uniform opponents. One of the sites I went to said that having kids pick out their own clothes in the morning teaches important decision making skills. :shock:

Yep. I am the parent. I set the rules. I include them as much as possible and I am many times their friend, but I am ALWAYS their parent and they know it. Ever watch Super Nanny? There could be thousands of Super Nannies out there and hardly make a dent in the bad parenting. The show is funny, but a little disturbing. The issue with bad parenting, as I have come to understand it... spanking has essentially been done away with and parents are unsure as to how they should best proceed. They were not taught and do not understand positive parenting techniques, for instance.
Public schools should require uniforms.
School officials and students have been playing games about student dress for years. Mini skirts were the issue back in the '60s, with girls wearing them too short, teachers measuring, girls hiking them up when teachers weren't looking, and so on. Now, it's gang attire, hoodies used to hide faces and earphones, pants in danger of falling off, and on and on.
Kids will do better if they look better. Attitudes improve with appearance. Teachers and administrators have better things to do than play dress code games. Parents shouldn't feel they have to buy the right brands for their kids to be popular. Kids should be required to wear the uniform of their school, or find another school.
