[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This reminds me of the post on AEM right now about dress code.  What the hell is going on?  Parents want their kids to be able to wear whatever they want to school and have their cell phones in class.  This is freaking crazy.[/quote]

Funny. I actually would like to know why it’s fine to ban cell phones but it’s not okay to ban sports bras as a shirt.[/quote]

I’d like to ban them both.  We don’t need cell phones nor to see anyone’s underwear in a classroom.  But I just can’t believe that as parents we can’t agree on that.  It should nothing to do with politics, and everything to do with what is best for our kids.  Insane.  [/quote]

If your child’s phone is harming them, you should definitely take it away! But you don’t want to hear them complain to you about it.[/quote]

I think you misunderstood what I was saying.  I like dress codes in school.  I am all for a cell phone ban.  FWIW, I also parent my child, but a lot of people don’t.  I want schools to be able to focus on teaching and learning.[/quote]

Me too. We could start with enforcing the current rules before making new ones.[/quote]

They actually are rules we have.  But look at the reaction when we take steps toward enforcing.  A reaction I don’t understand.  If your kid is so good and not on the phone- what exactly is the problem??[/quote]

+1 the whole problem is that we haven’t had a PIP.  So these have been the rules but teachers can’t enforce when parents push back. Like they are here.

Maybe PP’s kid are perfect but lots aren’t. [/quote]

+1 the PIP lays down the rules so teachers have back up when they enforce.  They’re not new or a total ban.  [/quote]

they will be a total ban in the pouch schools[/quote]
