Should boys be allowed to wear hip hop clothes, a related thread

[Rio_Kohitsuji]

In the school setting I believe that boys (or girls for that matter) should not be able to where super-oversized clothing.

This is due to safety.

I will soon be teaching in schools in my area that are growing in violence yet the administration are still refusing to put in place any type of metal detectors. Their only solution is a fat-balding cop that much rather check out the overly-sexualized young girls than check the kids who are coming through the back door.

Too many weapons can be hidden underneath oversized clothing. I frankly don't want to take the chance of some kid coming into school with a gun in his pants that you couldn't tell that it was there due to his choice of style.

But on a lighter note, after seeing too many kids running up/down the stairs with baggy jeans to end up falling up/down the stairs due to tripping on their jeans and cracking themselves a good one is another reason for not permitting children to have oversized clothing. (Now, how's that for a run-on sentence?)
