[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I reported a few months ago that I attended an Odyssey of the Mind awards ceremony and when South Lakes High school won an award, the Indian kids from TJ who sat in front of me remarked "is that a high school?" and then laughed.

Well today, I was at a youth athletic event and one of the kids had on a loud tie dyed "Haycock Elementary" t shirt.  One kid made fun of him and said he actually goes to Lemon Road now.

Parents got to have some influence on this self perceived elitist behavior.

I could see the second example being not mean.  If a man was with the Cowboys and then was with the Redskins, and he wore his old Cowboys shirt, it would be a little funny to say, "Uh, you are actually with the Redskins now."  I don't see your example meaning that the child was making fun of him as in his education was downgraded somehow.[/quote]

OP here...the tone of the kid's voice and the laugh was actually in a demeaning way.[/quote]
