bare asscheeks in middle school?

[Connonym]

Now that the weather has gotten warm a bunch of girls at my daughter's middle school are wearing hotpants to school. I must be officially too old because I think it's totally inappropriate and I can't believe they don't make them cover their butts.

1. Damn. I was in middle schools in the 80s in Phoenix, and shorts weren't allowed at all.

Oh, and yes. That is definitely a case of officially too old. But I'm in agreement with you, so I guess I'm official too.

2. They're allowed to wear shorts in school?

When did that happen? :shrug:

3. most schools have some kind of policy

call the school and find out.

I was more appalled by the 30-something mom crouching in her low-cut jeans in the school workroom and thereby flashing her brightly-colored thong to the assembled teachers.

5. Oh yeah

And in a few years, that same mother will be on freakin' Maury complaining about how her daughter dresses too slutty.

4. When I was a kid, girls couldn't wear pants in school...

It was a real bitch when it got cold outside.

When I got to junior high, they started allowing us to wear "nice pantsuits" from November to April. No jeans, ever.

10. At my daughter's middle school in So. Cal. it's asscheeks

peeking out of shorts and cleavage bursting from tiny tank tops year round. The school is concerned about "baggy gang clothing" and "t-shirts with profanity" on them, but apparently it's just fine to proclaim "JUICY" across your butt and wear a top that wouldn't be out of place on a Hooters' waitress.
