  • There is at least one good reason - it takes the pressure off of parents and kids to buy the most expensive or fashionable clothes, at least in school. It also means you don’t have to think about what outfit to wear each day and how you’ll be perceived by your classmates.

    I didn’t think much of it since I went exclusively to schools where uniforms were required, and I thought it was dumb. Then I met people who grew up in lower income households who said they wished they had uniforms growing up. They stood out like a sore thumb at school among kids who had more financial means, and we all know what assholes middle schoolers can be, so they did not have a great time.
