Here's an amazing video clip regarding the state's schools and how they want all to conform and behave. The excellent student, who is more articulate than the school administrator (notice how he says "nobody" when he should say "no one"), simply wanted to have her hair colored pink to honor her father, who died of cancer. Despite her mother's permission to die her hair, the school frowned upon it and suspended her.
As my children grow older, I'll make sure they read 1984 and Brave New World. They'll also see Gattica, V for Vendetta, and Aeon Flux. I want my kids to know what's coming.

One of the main reasons children (those under 18) normally stay in such trouble and chaos, is because they do not have reason guidelines taught by reasonable parents. Parents have failed to teach morals, responsiblity, manners, ethics or decency, yet become outraged when the few who still believe in raising a decent human say anything about the way their undisciplined and obnoxious children act. The girl in this story is in the wrong. If she and her mother do not like the rules of the school, then perhaps homeschool or private school should be considered.
