[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother used to teach elementary school.  He quit because of stupid shit like this.  If your kid in a dress is trying to sit cross-legged, then thank goodness someone is saying something to her or him.  [b]That's extremely inappropriate.

Tights are a kind of undergarment outside the gym IMO and you shouldn't sit cross legged in them unless you are at yoga class.[/quote]

What I think is inappropriate is teachers (of any gender) making rules about how seven-year-old girls wearing dresses should sit, lest people think thoughts about what's under their dresses.[/quote]

You are right, it is far more appropriate for your daughter to show her panties to everyone in the room.  God forbid she be corrected!  I'm sure no one will notice and she has every right to flash the other kids and teacher!  My God, people here are so stupid.[/quote]

Again, READ THE ORIGINAL POST, the child was wearing leggings under the dress.  NO PANTIES WERE EXPOSED.

Goodness.[/quote]
It doesn't really matter about leggings/no leggongs. It is too complex to enforce Larla is wearing leggings so she can sit on the floor, but Larlita is not wearing leggings so she can't. Both Larla and Larlita are wearing dresses and must sit in chair is easier to explain to children. Some of you will take offense at anything. how do manage to function at this level of outrage?[/quote]

If you're that confused, the simpler explanation is no one sits on the floor, then.  Letting boys be comfortable and enforcing "ladylike" behavior on girls, because .... it's too difficult to explain underwear to kids?  Again, this is BS.  [/quote]
When was the last time you sat on a floor? The chair is by far more comfortable.[/quote]
