Over at my GreaterFalls site, I’m dealing with the issue of my daughter being sent home from school for having purple streaks in her hair. Not an isolated incident, apparently — there are several middle-schoolers each year who go through this. The argument from the school, of course, is that “un-natural” hair colors are (a) distracting, and (b) might be indicative of gang activity and/or membership. We might be headed to the School Board meeting on Monday evening to raise the issue, but in the meantime, I’d like to know if any of you folks have dealt with something like this in your community.
