  I'm all for no curlers or pajamas cuz that's triflin, but fuck the no sweatpants rule. I can look perfectly neat and presentable in sweats.

  Well, if we're dressing as if we're going to church, the church of the FSM lets me wear soft pants.

  this is the important shit that deserves all of the attention for public school.  obviously the kids are failing because of curlers and sweatpants, not because of the emphasis on standardized testing, racial barriers, or lack of creativity in today's school day.  

  
  

  nope, it's all because someone's parents is rushing to work or relaxing on their time off.

  Oh fuck that. I work from home on Fridays and you bet your ass I pick up DS in sweatpants. Seriously? Worry if the parents show up drunk, not underdressed.

  This is ridiculous. I teach my children to dress appropriately for the occasion. Drop offs are not in the same ballpark as going to a nice dinner. My kindergartner understands that. That school is getting a little to involved in parenting IMO.

  I was just going to say this. And then confess that I own a pair of chaps. Sans ass of course.

  While I support the idea of holding yourself to the same standards you hold your kids:

  1) not everyone has the same standards (and that's perfectly reasonable)

  2) kids are dropped off for school dressed for the day - not all parents have had a chance to get dressed for the day after prepping their kid but before dropping them off at school

  3) I would damn well still wear yoga pants (and even a tight fitting tank top) in that case, because that *is* what I wear to work.  I'm a yoga teacher.

  Although he prefers al dente pants. Not too soft, not too hard, just right.

  What would they actually do if someone broke the dress code?  Hold the kid hostage? (Does that mean I get free daycare?) Give me detention?
  
  It's a ridiculous idea in the first place, and even more ridiculous because they could never enforce it.

  While I personally would not go into the school wearing pajamas, I wouldn't look twice at someone who did.  What's the difference?

  For the most part, no, absolutely not.  I could care less if my students' parents are in sweatpants or if they have their hair in curlers.  

  
  

  However....devil's advocate.  I have, on more than one occasion, experienced the kind of discomfort that comes from a parent dressed for "the gym" in what is essentially a spandex bikini.  THAT business needs to be stopped, or stay in the car.

  I'm going to buy some pajama jeans now just in case this ruling gets passed.

  Yoga pants, sweat pants...it's all good. Soft pants are a parenting necessity, everyone knows that.

  So I can wear my banana hammock thong to your next party? Sweeeet!
