Okay.......Somd.com has solved the education issue in this country. Put all the kids in the same uniform and drugs and violence will end. Yeah little Tommy will wear that nice clean uniform to school and still go home to his dead beat father who's abusive. Why doesn't everyone understand that the way a kid acts comes from the home, not what he wears to school. If your kids aren't getting good grades and being productive in school because they get to choose what they wear I feel sorry for the future.

You're right Juggy, what kids wear to school will have no impact on what they go through at home - good or bad.

So a kid that comes from a poor home and is subjected to abuse also has to put up with taunts and ridicule at school too because she/he is not wearing the "right" thing. But, if everyone is in uniforms, then at least, while the kid is at school, she/he wouldn't be a "lesser" person and wouldn't have to take the abuse at home AND at school. She/he would be just like everyone else and could just worry about getting a decent education so she/he could get out of the hell that they live in at home.

Maybe I'm off base here, but it seems to me that uniforms certainly can't HURT.
