[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My second graders teacher (male) told all the girls that if they wanted to sit on the floor during circle time, they could only do that if they weren't wearing a dress. If they had on a dress, they had to sit on a chair. He said something about "sitting like a lady" They had to sit on a chair even if they had on leggings under the dress. My daughter doesn't like dresses anyway so she isn't fazed but I didn't like this kind of policing (?) what do you guys think? Her friend refuses to wear dresses anymore. [/quote] Yes, this would bother me. It's fine to say that you can't sit on the floor if your underwear shows. It's not fine to say that girls whose underwear is not showing because they are wearing leggings under their dress have to "sit like ladies." Teach the kids to sit so their underwear doesn't show (sit back on their heels, sit with both legs to the same side) or to wear leggings or shorts underneath dresses, fine. [/quote]
