Re: We don't like the new school tie; our daughter isn't going to school.
Three points:
1. Clip on ties are a crime against style. I'd maybe wear one if it'd save my mum's life, but I'd make sure there was no photographic evidence, and I'd make it the rest of my life's work to track down and silence any witnesses.
2. If you've spent your teenage years wearing a clip on tie, how are you going to work out how to tie a real one when you go for your first job?
3. This dumb headmaster doesn't even understand what the point of a uniform rule is. Teenagers want to rebel. They want to break the rules. So give them a nice pointless rule that they can break without any ill effects for anyone. Far better to have them rebel by wearing not quite the right knot, rather than by vandalising things or shoplifting.
