The 11-year-old girl has been taken off shorts and long in school.

  • Without explaining, and in the absence of a good clothing in the shorts he was wearing, the school officials made the 11-year-old girl wear long jeans (see photo). The event took place in Clermont Ferrand (Occitania), and the student's mother immediately called the school.

The daughter, when she got home, tells her mother that she's been taken off her pants because they were provocative. This is what the girl herself has concluded, even though the mother has called the school and has given her another reason: that students should get used to having a good clothing to adapt to the university and the world of work.

“I’ve been in the labor world for over 20 years and I’ve always put on short skirts; I’ve never had any problems. To use the argument of the world of work for 11-year-old boys and girls seems hard and a little to treat it as a fool, because they do not want to mention the sexism that they want to impose – the mother has denounced angry. Let children live their childhood with peace of mind, shorts and bermuda shorts.”
