@canefan I dont agree either, but the process is better IMO.
I didnt have the issue, couldnt grow facial hair at school!
I can barely grow it now!
You’re lucky , my whanau got the lycanthrope gene . The only time it’s ever come in handy was when my brother took out first place in a hairiest back competition at a pub and won a $250 bar tab .

@voodoo I haven't read the article so do they say they have tried to understand and don't, or they haven't even tried?
Basically what you're saying is nothing should change, we should just accept what's passed down from up high?
I think she has been told why, she just doesn't like it. She didnt bother to shpw fpr the board meeting where they said they'd listen to her arguments.
And no, sucking everything up is not what I'm saying, not unilaterally. Although in this instance she should. As if the principal and the board don't have anything better to do that deal with her
I'm saying people need to pick their battles. Stand up for shit you believe in, but try to care about more than your individual right to grow a mo at school

@Bones who says its arbitrary? She does? Her 15yr son? Plenty of schools (90% +?) would have a similar rule for boys. I know we did.
What about uniforms? Are they arbitrary also?
Look, I dunno if the policy is the best one, but I do know that it's hardly worth getting upset about. I almost got fired from Pak'n'Save when the manager came in off duty and saw I was unshaven (I used to rock the fish bay section - the aroma made me money with the ladies at Friday night parties after my shift ended ...)
It was a simple rule, really not hard to comply with, and no big sacrifice for me.
I just reckon energy is much better directed at stuff that matters. If my kids want to pick a fight with authorities, I want to make sure it's something they really care about , and then I'll support them all the way

see I think this mother did this the right way with her son, rather than defying school rules and fighting form there, they are complying and then seeking a review.
And yet he's allowed that haircut?

First time I've ever encountered this. I thought the hyphenated names were the perfect solution for the kids, not adults.
Was wondering who "ex kiwi league international " Robbie Hunter-Paul was...
*Hunter-Paul is well placed to comment on Super League impact.
The Aucklander - best known in New Zealand as Robbie Paul before hyphenating his name when he married Lisa Hunter in 2010 – spent his entire 19-year professional career in England.*
From an article on stuff talking up SBW
What if two people with hyphenated names get married and want to... hyphenate? Do they end up with 4 surnames? And then their kids end up with 8? 16? 32?
It's a stupid idea.
Both parents hyphenating is, but children adopting hyphenated names works perfectly well for hundreds of millions of people.
How selfish, not thinking of the next generation beyond thier own.
Hyphenated names are retarded. -

Hyphenated names are retarded.Heh heh Andrew Smith-Jones marries Andrea Samson-Whitely and their child becomes Bruce Samson-Whitely-Smith-Jones! That's quite some signature!

@Kirwan they make up a name like those people earlier in this thread!
Funnily I met up with a client last year, and when I met him I thought he seemed familiar, but name didnt ring a bell, he recognised my name, and then said his name at school and how his name was now a combination of him and his wife's name.
Assume it is no different if they split up they both change names back?

Merged names should be more of a thing a Smith marries a 'Brown' they could become 'Smown' or 'Brith' way more interesting and sustainable.

My mate changed his last name at marriage to his mothers maiden name as he was the end of that family name.
His wife to be was thrilled too as if he kept his original last name she would have been Mrs Crabb
