Boys be allowed long hair in schools

Oh my God. Maybe you should move to a third world country that offers little or no schooling.

How is this coming from a fellow Minnesotan? We have one of the best education systems in America.

 

I kind of agree with some of his criticisms. There is somewhat of an assembly-line, one-size-fits-all approach to education in this country, but sometimes it's in your best interest to work within the system. Even if you despise it.

 

I kind of agree that hair is not worth getting expelled over but at some point you have to show that you won't stand for injustice. I think its more about the violation of basic human rights and showing that you're not afraid to stand up

 

If you're being held in slavery or you've been cheated by your country's justice system then yes, those are human rights violations you should contest if you can. But wanting to have long hair surely isn't worth potentially fucking up your life when it's barely even began. Like I said, choose your battles.

 

exactly right, just live with it till 18 then you can make your hair 4 or 5 metres long later on, schools not going to last a life time anyway

 

Agreed.

Yes, I totally agree with you. Even I am from India and I hate this rule denying boys from keeping long hair. I love long hair. My hair covers almost half of my ears but when I go to school i just push them behind my ears. So no one even notices. As soon as I get out of school I put my hair back to normal position. This way no one gets mad at me. But unlike your school, in my school I have seen 11th and 12th graders keeping long hair. Not literally long, but it covers most of their ears and it touches their collars in the back. The teachers don't mind boys keeping long hair. My fringes touch my eyebrows but that's not a problem here. It should not go over your ears. Schools in the west don't mind this at all. Then why is this happening in India?
