IM4THEHOUNDS Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Student Suspended How about the Mom's reaction. It's a kindergarten kid and she's willing to change schools rather then his hair because he likes it. Who's the parent? The fact that Mohawk wasn't directly referred to in the dress code is simply ridiculous . . . it is implied . . . anything that causes a distraction. She knew this and was warned three times . . . she was looking for a fight. I would have told her not to let the door hit her in the behind. The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree . . . good riddance.
Jim Schue Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Plus, Mohawk haircuts are just completely ridiculous-looking and almost totally indefensible.

Jim Schue Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Who wants to bet a lawsuit is soon to follow? Emotional distress anyone? I smell a First Amendment case in there somewhere as well. :thumb:
Ms Liberty Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Why would any parent cut their childs hair like this , at his age he had no say in the matter.!
Henry521 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 The kid is 6, he has no idea what he likes. A boy at six doesn't and shouldn't care what his hair is like. At six, just getting thier hair cut is a chore. This is a mom with a mission. I agree that she is just pushing buttons to get a First Ammendment Case out of this. I don't want to offend single moms, but she just seems to be one that is doing whatever to get alittle extra $. It's moms like her that can give single, hard working moms a really bad name.:mad:

All Tell Posted February 29, 2008 Author Posted February 29, 2008 There's a great role model to emulate.
John Anthony Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 There's a great role model to emulate. Don't remember anyone being suspended. It's a judgement call by the school and it's brought negative publicity. Now they have a "distraction."
Hamilton Joe Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Nobody wants to follow rules anymore and it's only getting worse. Parents need to be held accountable and teach their kids that there are rules in all aspects of life and if you make a mistake then their are repercussions. Unfortunately in some schools there aren't clear and consistent rules and policies and people interpret rules in different ways or they twist rules and policies so that kids can still participate in various activities. They make up little bogus punishments and all they end up doing is teaching kids that there are ways to get around the rules. When rules are followed then the coach/teacher/administrator earns respect. When you play with the rules as I have seen in various situations then you lose any chance at respect and creditability.
HammerTime Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 I don't see the big deal with it honestly.
Jim Schue Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 When I was in first grade, I had a mohawk. I'm so sorry you're a victim of bad parenting.
