[quote=Anonymous]Big fan of uniforms here. I grew up financially comfortable but a little dorky with no interest in fashion. In middle school I was incessantly bullied by one particular mean girl over what I was wearing--the wrong sneakers, the wrong boots, the wrong colors, the wrong jeans. It made me extremely self-conscious and afraid to be myself in a way that lasted long after the bullying ended. I am not saying that school uniforms eliminate can eliminate bullying, but they do eliminate one obvious factor on which vulnerable kids can be singled out for ridicule. [/quote]
