Don't you think Mothers who go up to their kids school should dress appropriately?

Question

In my kids school ,(it's a public school),there are mothers who go walking up to the school,wearing short shorts up to their a*s,and some of them,wear shirts that expose their belly rings,in front of all the kids!,
I think it's diss respectful,and should not have to shown to kids in public schools,
It' letting girls think that it's OK to be a sleeze,and a diss respectful sl*t,when they become teens.
How parents act and speak,and dress in front of our children,could leave life impressions on how they think and act in thier own surroundings when they get older.
Who feels the same way I do?

Answer 1

While it *is* an adult's choice to dress how they want, these mothers should consider the fact that they're appearence will probably be mortifingly embarrassing for their children, and could set a bad example for them and the other students.

Yes, moms can be sexy, but do it when it's appropriate, dates, parties, etc. You wouldn't dress like that to the office or to a church, so just consider school another one of those off-limits areas.

Answer 2

I think there is a fine line and everyone's tastes are different. I go to pick up my youngest 2 after I leave from work. I am always dressed in work clothes (nice pants and shirt). I do feel out of place when I pick them up. There are mom's that just wear sweats and no make up. I don't think I could be the type that could be that way.

I believe the problem with the people who have the shorts and belly rings are in what their tastes are. I do agree with you that people should set an example for their children and that would not be my way of setting the example.

Answer 3

Yes, I think they should wear something decent. Like a pair of slacks, with a nice blouse. or some nice sweats. But unfortunately no everybody is lucky enough to have a good education and manners. There is alot of factors to be considered. It is easy for us to criticize but we don't really know the nature of the action.
It would be nice if all the parents dress appropriately to school. But in once mind no everybody has the same idea of what dress appropriately is. It's all about principals, level of education, moral etc.
Our kids receive the education at home, so it does not matter how some moms go dress to school, what it matters is what you teach them at home. Think about it, you see lots of moms everywhere with mini skirts, mini shorts etc. at the streets, in the mall, but if your child has her principals well set, you shouldn't worry!

Answer 4

I absolutely agree with you. There needs to be a line separating the kids from the parents and dress is definitely one way to do that. There are a lot of mothers out there nowadays who try to dress like they are 10 years younger than they are, and it's pretty sad most times.

Answer 5

It's a free world. The parents can dress however they feel like. They may dress like a "sl.ut" but is it really any of your business how they dress? I highly doubt that a kid will change their perspectives on clothing on another person.

It's not letting girls think it's "okay" to dress with their belly showing, they should no "right from wrong", even though I see no wrong in dressing 10 years younger.

Have you ever thought that maybe these stereotyped "sl.uts" feel more comfortable dressing 10 years younger than they are?

You really need to grow up, we have all different kind of people and that is what makes the world go around and around, without them, our world would be as boring as watching paint dry.

Answer 6

I agree with you 100%. To me people who dress like that have no respect for themselves, much less anybody else. You are right, you see a kid that back talks and cuts up and talks bad, most of the times, just look at the parents and you will see where they get it from. My son is in 5th grade and if I showed up at his school like that, he would act like he didn't know me!!

Answer 7

I don't know if the way they dress is disrespectful or not. I think that today's fashions are more tacky than not, and they are sleazy.. to me. Defiantly not for me. However, it is everyone right to dress the way they choose and no one said you had to like it. Or wear it yourself.

Yes, we should "lead by example" with our kids...but we all have the right to choose what is important to our families. I would rather see a young mother's belly ring than see her on drugs. I would rather a young mother ware short shorts on a hot day than see her drunk. I would rather see then dressed sleazy and interested in their child's schooling than not care. It's about compromise and what is really important. Clothes/fashion changes every year...so who really cares? Instead of focusing on what these ladies are wearing why don't you get to know them. I'll bet they are great Moms who just want to look cool! Remember don't judge a book by it's cover! Have a great holiday!

Answer 8

Funny you should say this. A few years ago at my kids school, a mother was asked not to come to school dressed the way she was. She looked like a street walker. Bring this to the attention of your principal..maybe a note will go home to all parents as a hint to dress appropriately when they come to the school.

Answer 9

I totally agree! Mothers who go to their children's school looking any kind of way have no respect for themselves and even their children! Regardless if they have rollers in their hair, have bedroom shoes on or dress inappropriate, they should think twice before going to the school. Looking that way is a distraction to the other children and also embarrassing to their own children! My mom never did me that way and I will never do that to my girls and even myself! When I see a female dressed inappropriately, I show my girls and say "that is NOT how you are suppose to dress!".

Answer 10

OMG We must have gone to the same school. My son went to a school and there was this lady in six inch heels and VERY short skirts and half tops. She looked trampy. Turned out she was a mother of one of my son's friends. I couldn't believe she went to the school like that. This was first grade! She looked really bad. She thought she was sexy and maybe she could have been but not at a grade school!!!
