I read that story this morning. Bi-racial's got nothing to do with it. You send your kid off to school and the teacher decides to cut her hair? My dad was a pretty mellow guy, but he would have raised holy hell if if a teacher cut my sister's hair without his or mom's permission.

I can't fathom what would bring any teacher to cut the hair on a child of a student. A bully kid might cut the hair, but that should be handled by the school and the parents.

That teacher needs to be questioned, and unless there was some astonishing reason to cut her hair, fired. And then have her hair shaved off as well.

The good news is it just hair, and it will grow back. That teacher should become a ex-teacher.

My dad was mellow as well, until he was not. That teacher would have been sporting a new hairstyle by the end of the day if he were involved.

Absolutely nuts.

Having said that though, what idiot thinks this is about race, or that her race is worth mentioning over and over in the article? Disgusting.

In a similar vein, a local gay couple was claiming harassment and hate because they were frequently ticketed and complained about for parking a large truck in the wrong spots. Still trying to understand the gay play. Break the rules and you pay.

it's suspicious, because this often happened to black kids

Looks to me like kids were being kids and cutting her hair because it was outside the norm. Looks sort of like a blond afro.



Seems possible the teacher didn't know the parents had it cut in an asymmetric style and was trying to even it out in a well meaning, but poor judgement kind of way. I'd be curious to hear the logic before jumping to conclusions. I wouldn't be surprised of the parents' outrage is becoming unnecessary trauma for the little girl. I'd be curious how she took it. Very possible she's better off out of that school.

Reasoned assessment.

Great hair on that kid - previous to the cut. Might have been a bit of jealousy.

Teahers... I remember as a little boy Mr Allwood, teacher at Solway Primary school, was always concerned we had not dried between our toes and would kneel in front of us naked little boys and check our toes.

Nothing to do with race, everything to do with school employees who should get fired. Except they are union and probably damn near impossible to fire. A good friend of mine is a principal, he said on average it takes three years to fire a bad teacher unless they do something outrageous that’s an explicit fireable offense.

Relax fellas. It’s a click-bait piece from MSN that likely doesn’t include the entire story. As stated above, race is mentioned several times in a story unrelated to race. Welcome to the new America. You’ve taken the bait.
