[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will not remove my shoes in any home. This is part of my clothes, the shoes match the dress or pant or whatever, and I am not walking around with bare feet in your house, with everyone else's bare feet. I also do.not.want.to.see.everyone's toes. Gross.  Do you see this at State dinners, or dinner parties, or the theater, or [b]in schools,[/b] or anywhere? Learn to clean your floors. No. Jesus. If you need to do this, warn 
everyone ahead, so they can bring their inside shoes. [/quote]
Actually the elementary schools (and daycares) around here require a change of shoes. Indoor shoes and outdoor shoes. [/quote]

I have taught school for 38 years, 11 different schools, 3 regional areas,and overseas. I have never encountered that anywhere. AND that would never be able to be enforced. Asking a kid to be responsible for even one set of sneakers is already pushing it.  Come on. [/quote]

Nope, absolutely true. We live in Vermont and the kids wear outdoor shoes to school and change to an indoor pair when they get to school all winter and into mudseason which ends up being most of the school year;-)[/quote]

Agreed. A lot of DCUM posters are from the south. When I was a kid, we kept a pair of shoes at school for this. We also had to pack snow gear in our backpacks in the winter because they actually took us outside in the cold. Imagine that![/quote]
Same. A little bizarre that pp thinks this is so foreign. [/quote]
