Punished For Showing Love And Support

A friend of mine sent me an email yesterday and it really got me thinking. The email stated that there was a little girl that was told she couldn't attend school because of a dress code policy. At first I thought it wasn't a big deal until I continued reading. I read that this little girl had shaved her head in support of a friend who had been undergoing treatment for cancer. This brave little girl shaved her head to show her friend that she loved and cared for her, but the school would not allow her to come back because it violated their dress code. Eventually she was allowed back to school.

 I don't know about you but I thought loving others and making a difference was more important than some school dress policy. This is why America is in the shape it is in. We have allowed certain entities to become so powerful that we have no rights in an education system. If kids can't love others then what does that say about the future of America?

I understand that if a dress policy is in effect it must be enforced, but given the circumstances this little girl should be commended for what she did. It is not like it was a fashion statement of a High School kid, it was simply a young little girl with love in her heart. If she had done this to be different then they should enforce a dress code strictly, but simply being supportive is an entirely different thing.

Wake up America! We are going in the wrong direction from where we started. If you want a more promising future for your family then realize what is happening and maybe we can do something about it.

We should all strive to be more like this young girl, because she has something that we have lost through the years. Courage and Love!
