I went to a private school for a while and my parents and I knew the rules going and I went knowing I would have to follow them. I never expected, or asked, to be an exception.

I could have gone to the same private school my senior year that my younger brothers were going to attend. ( 1977/78 )

I would have had to cut my long hair to not touching my ears and shave off my mustache.

I politely declined to my parents

Ditto


My parents thought about the same idea in my senior year.
For about 2 seconds

I could reach behind my back and easily touch my hair. NFW was I cutting it that short.

My Great Uncle Welly offered me $100 cash ( 1977 money ) if I would get a crew cut, I declined.

Even the stupid rules.

Furthermore, the little bastards making fun of her should be severely punished.

Sounds to me like she/her parents are just looking for an excuse to sue.

I don't see anything wrong with her hair. But if the rules say tie it back. Then you tie it back.
The only issue parents are raising is their level doucheness.

That's the way I look at it. Generally they have uniforms, grooming standards, etc. If you want crazy hair, do it on your own time, and yeah, they knew it going in.

Stereotypes are earned for a reason....

Before I forget, is the girl "African" or "American"? For fcuks sake I hate "hyphenated" American terms.

Sort of. The stereotypes about them were EARNED years back, now it’s more like the stereotypes are being reinforced.

Born mid 40s and I grew up in a mixed racial neighborhood and graduated from a 75% black school and I can honestly say things have gone downhill for blacks in general since the 60s. With the election of our racist POTUS it is even getting much worse, FAST.

of course, somebody must be to blame. I wonder who...

If she wants to go to that school then she needs to abide by their rules. But I do think anyone complaining about that hair should shut up and find something more important to be upset about. Unless it's shaped like a penis and balls.
