QuoteAccording to Fox News, Woodchurch High School in Wirral, in Northwest England has banned students from wearing jackets from ?Canada Goose, Moncler or Pyrenex, which cost up to 1,000 pounds ($1,280) each.?

The school sent a letter home to parents and explained to them their reasoning behind this decision. "As you are all aware from an email that was sent out yesterday, pupils will not be permitted to bring in Canadian (sic) Goose and Monclair (sic) coats after the Christmas break.?

The support from parents/carers has been overwhelmingly positive and we are very thankful for this. Some have also asked whether Pyrenex coats, which are also in a similar price range (with some also having real fur) will also be prohibited. I am writing to confirm that these brands will also be prohibited after Christmas. Thank you for your ongoing support."

I mean...they still have to listen to rappers brag about having money they'll never see, probably driving past houses that their parents will never afford and see kids using thousand dollar iPhones that their parents can't buy them but...yay?

I was in private school for most of my childhood - we all wore uniforms. And I gotta admit that it helps when everyone looks the same.

There was never a conversation about who got the new sneakers or name brand shirts, etc.

I'd want my child to go to a school where uniforms are required.

Cuz they damn sure will not be wearing all the new Jordans and mess. That type of coin would be put into their education instead (if I am unable to find a really great public school) or put into some sort of savings account for them.

I get it, but I think it would be more beneficial to teach your children to be individuals and not base their self worth on trying to keep up with what their peers have. Once a child (or anyone) has a strong sense of self, outside opinions become less important. And we live in  country that worships the wealthy over any other group, so trying to shield your child from any of it is kind of pointless.

LOONA.


yummy

Lemme cut right to meat and potatoes

I'm right and you need to shut the fuck up about it
