Of all the uses for duct-tape.... This might be my favorite...

Dad Says Principal Duct-Taped Son's Pants


2 hours, 10 minutes ago


Add U.S. National - AP to My Yahoo!




DUNLAP, Ind. - The father of a seventh-grader claims an assistant principal came up with a bizarre way to keep his son's pants from sagging in school: duct tape.



Scott Allison told the Concord School Board earlier this month that his 12-year-old son, Spencer, was ordered by a teacher to lift his shirt after she noticed the boy's underwear was showing above his pants, a violation of Concord Junior High School's dress code.



She sent him to Assistant Principal Patricia Walters, who told Spencer to pull up his pants and tuck in his shirt, Allison said.



"She then proceeded to duct tape his waist, three times around the waist," said Allison. "Then she sent him back to class, in front of his peers."



He said he worried his son would be mocked by his classmates at the school in the town about 20 miles east of South Bend.



"This outrages me and shocks me," Allison said.



Allison also said that Spencer's underwear would not have been exposed if the shirt was left down. "I don't understand what motivated her to ask him to lift up his shirt," he said.



Board President Randall Myers said the board would not discuss personnel issues in public. Junior high Principal Kevin Caird said student discipline is confidential.

Anyone who's read the "Can a child molester ever be called "hot?"" thread knows the answer to that one.

When I was in school if something like that happened the teacher would have been given an award.

A teacher when I was a junior tried to make me wear an electrical cord as a belt over my nice brown belt because it wasn't keeping my pants up high enough for her. She was a bitch.

So then your opinion of this hasn't changed much in the past two years.

Well, it hasn't changed (had I even given an opinion or did I just state what happened to me..), I just didn't understand your point or why you needed to post that great insight.

The "baggy pants show off your boxers" trend has baffled me more than other trends. I just don't get it. It may be the only fashion trend more ridiculous looking than the seventies vintage bell bottoms.

The question is what was she doing the three times she went around his waist... everyone knows one pass with duct tape would have held those pants up.

You stated an opinion that your teacher was a bitch, ostensibly because she decided to make you adhere to a dress code with which you did not agree.

I actually don't know anyone who does this. I pull my shorts down a little so they barely go past my knees, but not so people can see my boxers (I wear gym shorts under my pants/shorts anyways. My pants also ride not directly on my waist, but I wear a 30 and it's still too big even with a belt so they go a little low, but again my shirt always covers anything, and it's not like I wear huge shirts.

Actually it was the way she went about doing things that rendered her a bitch in my book. Constantly to tell me to pull my pants up was just icing.

As an engineering student, this story gets my highest rating: 4 rolls of duct tape.

It goes back to prison fashon. No shoe strings, no belt: you can't use those to hang yourself. The pants then hang low, which is used for easy access by your "friends" in prison.
