As a woman who has started out her educational career as a young girl in uniforms and transcended to wearing regular clothes, I believe that dress codes should be enforced in schools. Today's kids are pretty much different/same as when I was growing up. I really didn't like wearing uniforms when I was in Catholic school, but we all had on the same thing so there was no one really feeling left out as far as clothing. When I transfered to public school, it was a different story. Because I didn't have the designer clothes that some of the other kids had, I was made fun of. At this day and age, education should be the focus on a child's mind, but of course, that may not happen.
Nowadays, we have these little girls who want to grow up so fast and wear club wear to school. Mini skirts, tube tops, and many provacative clothing should not only be worn by young girls, but should not be worn in school. I'm not saying to wear turtle necks and ankle length skirts all year round. You have to dress tasteful and not taste-less in school. Parents should have major control over this situation, but once their kids walk out the door to school, it is a different story. Kids do change there clothes at school....believe me, I used to do it.
