To you, it's unhealthy, fins. If it is, that school should have never been stayed up to these years... And we do not actually tolerates unhealthy schools like letting their students come inside the campus drunk, wearing two-piece and stuff... just because that's what their students want to.
The uniforms and related policies practiced by most schools in our country always have positive feedbacks from students.
That's why I said ATTITUDE and CHARACTER of the student is honed in our schools ... Not how should they wear or stuff ... Filipino students anyway know how to handle such cases. Uniforms has never been a serious problem.
We have lots of respected schools in our country that do not impose uniforms as strict compliance... students in our country have always too many options to choose from.
Education anyway, is not for fashion and trend stuff alone.
Filipino, well I`m told they have really strict schools there. Have a neighbour who is a Filipino, he is just made Captain on a boat sailing for a Norwegian maritime company. He told me how school was back in were he came from. He is happy to be here and his kids attend norwegian schools cause he plans to stay and he wants his kids integrated into the Norwegian society............ohh and he doesnt wants his kids to be sailors 😮💨

I think, to a certain extent, and a certain age, uniforms are actually a good idea. It makes us all equal - you don't have some children having to wear Oxfam, Car Boot and Hand-Me-Downs, while other kids get DKNY, Gap and fcuk.
Phoe....
You nailed it with that one !
While at some time it is a good thing to encourage young-folk to be individuals and to even make a statement with their clothes, during school hours it is not the time for this.
When some kids are from poorer backgrounds and others come from well-off families there is never a level playing field when it comes to showing off the latest designer gear. All this does is creates an underclass that is pitied by the rich elitists.
Leave that until they get into the cruel world I think !

i meant 😱 mech, good to see you!
i've been serving brummies all summer in my new job at brean 😛
i think uniforms are a good thing, but just last year they introduced blazers instead of jumpers at my school. the kids look smarter, but they're rediculous to wear - they have to keep them on 90% of the time.
I feel uniforms are a good idea. The rich and the poor are leveled off. Society in the USA bases how you look to more than how much you know. I was born and raised in Germany, and when I moved over here to the USA, it was a wake-up call. I was 15 at the time and people cared more about the shoes I wore and what car I Was going to drive. Silly really.
As for the piercings, as long as it's in good taste, I would not find it too offensive. (eyebrow and bellybutton piercings would not be offensive, lip and nose would be a minor distraction to the face)
