shirts vs skins? is the school too poor to get some coloured vests? were the girls supposed to take off their shirt too?
This was very much a thing all over the US when I was young.
It’s fake or 20+ years old
Doesn’t have to be. This is how it worked when I was in middle school. That was 3 years ago.
Thanks for sharing this valuable information. I’m sure many people out there would actually be worried about their career into Digital Marketing, <a href=digiperform.com/top-15-data-science-courses-in-de…'>Top 15 Best Data Science course In Delhi</a>

Nobody cares about bullying, until the victim decides to fight back. Then it’s “zero tolerance” for violence

This was probably 25 years ago at this point but I got sent to the principal’s office along with the kid that attacked me and I didn’t even have a chance to fight back before an adult showed up to stop it. Didn’t matter, got the same “shame on you” even though I literally did nothing.

I was in martial arts in highschool, and the star student got in a fight. Advanced levek blackbelt, teaching lessons himself, winning regional competitions, wanted to do mma and teach it shortly before it really became a known thing, think he actually does that now.
I had recently watched this guy hold his own sparring against the lead instructor of our “dojo” and the lead instructor for the state. They came at him one at a time, but it was one contiuous match.
The star student did not initiate the fight at school. He could have broken the kid who attacked him in half without much effort, but he didn’t even attempt to block. He knew the zero tolerance rules and didn’t want anything to come back on him.
If I recall right, the attacker broke or sprained the star student’s arm. School admin still came down on him. It took intervention by state level people in our martial arts org and numerous others for them to let him back before the attacker.
This sounds like some adolescent power fantasy, but it’s not. Just absolutely fucking absurd.

Absolutely not true. It’s the adults listening and reacting only to what they want that incentivizes young people to lie

That is such a horrible view of children. What happened to you to form such an opinion?

It’s worth it to smash bullies right in the nose.
