Am I old and out of touch?

Good grief, not on any of the posts I see. Rather a harsh condemnation of all school children based on a couple of ill advised photos by some rather stupid parents who will probably be back on the same pages in a day or so grumbling that their precious child has been sent home for contravening uniform regulations. Just ignore the fools

No primary school children in my area would be seen in fishnet tights and mini skirts

Never heard such a thing!

Secondary school is a different matter. Once they hit 13, their taste tends to change

I was about to say the same as Humbertbear

Who are your FB friends? None of my friends post such pictures and I am in groups which give me local information and art groups which give me help and support.

No I don’t think you are, I see the same with primary school children every day when our very close Academy is open it’s very sad.

That`s exactly why i don`t go on Facebook Daddima.
Some of these parents need to realise the danger they are encouraging their daughters into.
Pathetic beyond belief.

I should have known better than to look at Facebook, and the many ‘ back to school’ pictures ( Scotland goes back today or tomorrow).
I feel sad and a wee bit angry looking at pictures of primary school girls in micro-skirts and black fishnet tights pouting like pornstars, and their mothers captioning the pictures with ‘ she’s so grown up’ or ‘ where did my little girl go?’ They’re ten years old, for God’s sake!

I need to lie down now.
