It seems that lately there have been quite a few stories surfacing where school officials are making a big deal over the hair choices of children. Sometimes I can agree with the point the school is making, other times - like this one- I am in awe at the behavior of an adult towards a child.
The mother of a seven-year-old girl whose candy-style hair was mocked on Facebook is suing the teacher who allegedly posted the photo. Ukailya Lofton turned up to school at Overton Elementary School in Chicago on picture day with Jolly Rancher candies tied to her braids after seeing the style in a magazine. Lucinda Williams claims ‘emotional distress’ was inflicted on her daughter after the teacher posted two pictures with the comment: ‘And y'all thought I was joking!’
