Comment on Child’s school updated the uniform policy

The motivation of the head of that school … looks fundamentally-wrong.
However, there actually-is a valid reason for school-uniforms:
a principal of a school who’d had problems keeping drug-dealers off the playground, told the world that with school-uniforms, it is easy to see who shouldn’t be on the grounds.
Otherwise, you can’t.
the whole business of proving-insitutional-importance through abusing all who are subject-to-the-institution, though, that’s just middle-class/upper-middle-class bullying.
Avoid capital-cities if that bugs you: they’re made of it.
Do ranked-lists of the problems facing the school, get input from other parents, & do it for each dimension that’s pertinent.
Make it obvious that this institutional-ego forcing-others’-expendatures bullying isn’t what ought be the school’s priority.
The problem is that it’s sociopolitical: it’s the schoolboard who’s got leverage, and … they’re almost-certainly of the same ilk.
Which means that you’d really need to get them replaced, in order to get this school-head replaced…
Whatever, don’t give-up, push even if the results seem insignificant ( the habit-of-pushing is itself worth something meaningful ), & I hope you get progress.

Translating from thoughtshapes to nested-groups-of-words is hard-enough with them…
I wish I had multiple-levels of them…
It’s like trying to translate chemistry to atoms, without being allowed to depict molecules: bullshit inaccuracy.
