World Boy, 14, banned from school for moustache but father says he's too young to shave

ElderKingpin said:
maybe the school warned him several times to shave it, but he never did, thats what my school would do probably, it would warn you then ban you, unless the school is jacked up theres nothing calling for insta ban with no warning

That's still not the point. A school has no right to choose something like this for a kid. And to punish him on something they have no right for, I'd either start a protest or sue.
 
Sue? That costs money.
Protest? ...Yeah. x)

I'd just shave the damned thing off. It's not worth the hassle.

Exactly! I mean seriously? Is it really worth having a mustache if it means you won't get your education? A mustache will GROW BACK.

Sure, the school is a bit retarded and has no right, but if they're willing to go through this trouble, then just shave the damned thing off!
 
Its bull shit. Its like people saying "Your not allowed an education because your ugly."
 
They are only doing it for their 15 minutes of fame

If the staff and all the other students are expected to adhere to the uniform policy, then he should as well.

I think he really needs to go to school, he clearly has no idea what he is talking about, shaving does not ruin your skin, it's actually good for you.
 
A spokesman for Manchester Academy, which has more than 700 pupils, said it was a standard requirement that all children are clean shaven.

I think that the spokesman is a pervert, atleast that is what I get out of this quote:nuts:

A person that is asking a CHILD to shave, must have been doing this to much->:banghead:

Dude, just look at him, do you really think that he looks like someone who can handle a razor?:p
 
While I wholeheartedly agree that the school is being uptight, I don't see the family winning in the matter anytime soon. How much school will he miss before they let him back in, mustache and all? three weeks? four weeks? two months? I personally think education is more important than my 'stache, so sometimes you have to stop being a bitch about it, suck it up, and shave off the mustache.

Again, let me stress that I think the school should just let him have the mustache in any case.
 
so much controversy.. over a mustache lawlz, this is what thehelper has come to xD.. id like to point out however, that even though he may not like it, they are still the authority in his life, if he doesnt listen to a simple school, how will he listen later in life? there will always be someone over you
 
I think all parts involved are formed by idiots.

On one side there's the school. I am not against uniform policy, but the shave thing is a bit off... as in, I do not (and probably most normal people) consider a small mustache as indecent. If the guy was looking like a hobo then I would understand.

On the other side there's the boy with his father. He is not too young to shave. I started shaving at 13. As for the skin ruining thing, somebody give him a book on male puberty issues, please. Shaving does not ruin your skin. Oh, maybe he's talking about a possible irritation, but there are plenty of lotions for that. And honestly, if he continues to be that stubborn over a mustache and not continue his education, he will become a homeless guy and will be able to have a nice, big, beard, with nobody bashing him for it :thup:.

And anyway, that's not even a mustache. It's just a puffy thing :rolleyes:. When I got that one I shaved it pretty quick, I thought it was laughable :p.

This is a real mustache =].
 
Hey, hey, what's wrong?? You are all forgetting about social contract. If the kid wants education from THAT school, he has to follow the rules.

The charity-run school has a uniform policy that even staff are expected to comply with.

When he signed up there, he has read about the dress code. He knew that there are standards that he is expected to meet, including the "How-do-I-look" category. This is what the school wants in exchange for the education he's gonna get, so if he complains, it is out of stupidity.

'They've embarrassed me and they've embarrassed my family. I was walking down the corridor to registration and one of the teachers took me into a room. '

No, I'm sorry, you've done the embarrassing. You chose to break the rules and walk into a school with a strict "visual" standards with a moustache. Don't blame them - YOU disobeyed the rules.

The rules, again:
'The Academy has established rules on personal appearance and dress which students are expected to adhere to.'
Click to expand...

It's your fault, kid, sorry. It's called rules.
 
why would he blatantly walk into a school with a mustache, when he knows what the rules are
 
How do you people even know that the "no mustasch" rule is in their rules?
It could just be that their is a loop-hole in their dressing policy;)

My former boss said that I was not allowed to use "snus" on the job, but I was allowed when I proved that the rules could not possibly contain any prohibitions for "snus" when formulated as they where:p They where changed pretty quick after that tho:(
 
Off Topic: What the Hell is "snus"?!

I'd just go to a different school.

One with less stupidity.
 
Ugh. Tobacco o_O Gross, man.
 
Yeah :( Why do people use tobacco? Same goes for alcohol -_-' Would you drink a gasoline? It's pretty much the same as alcohol except will make you sick sooner.

    We have some elderly guests that regularly come hang out at the bar at the end of the night, and every once in a while we don't see someone for a few weeks and then someone shows up with their obituary.
  • Varine Varine:
    We usually let them do their memorials there in the morning if they want to and I'll make them some snacks and drinks. There was one guy named Tom that came in like every night and would sit by himself and get a bunch of soup and a glass of wine. idk why but he LOVED our fucking soup, like he would order a fucking quart of it at a time and would always get so sad when we stop doing it for the summer.

  • Varine Varine:
    But he also loved our calamari, which is another thing I hate but it sells super well so I can't change it. There was one day he came in and was asking me how to make it, because he tried to at home once in the off season when we stop running it and he really wanted it lol
  • Varine Varine:
    I think he's one of the only people I've made recipes for for free because he really wanted a broccoli cheddar, and it was like dude I don't have a recipe, it's just whatever I have, but here, this is how you do it
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think he ever figured out how to do the calamari in a pan though, like idk how to do that either. He was afraid of the at home deep fryers though and it's like yeah, that's fair, I am too
  • Varine Varine:
    He was just such a sweet old man, we had two servers pregnant and they held a baby shower together, he was soooooo fucking excited to get to see a baby. Unfortunately he died a month or so before they were born
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So I decided to Google some people that I had not seen or heard from in a while and sure enough one of my old best friends, we had a falling out years ago but whatever, find out he died of Pancreatic Cancer in January. I have also lost a few of my closer acquaintances from growing up the last year. Getting old - people die - I kinda thought it was going to be this way a few years ago....

    Forum running super slow again
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Not really clear from the stats as to what is causing the slowness.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    We get a lot of guest traffic so it may just be the load is getting too high and not from any particular source.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks like the server is maxed out on CPU.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Oh it looks like a lot of the traffic is Silkroad Forums. That domain isn't protected by Cloudflare.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    But the old Silkroad site is still on its own server. I just had a test site set up on this server for it.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I just disabled that test site. Let's see if that helps the load.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks much better already.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I had actually forgot about the Silkroad site. I had asked
  • The Helper The Helper:
    SD Ryoko about it and he said the couple of people left on there really like it, that was a few years ago, maybe I should check back
  • jonas jonas:
    I guess when you're getting old, and the last day of soup season draws near, you start wondering

    will I make it to the start of the next season? or was this the last time I'll ever have my favorite dish?
