Because society has been preaching rules
can be changed when it no longer suits you.. just go on facebook/twitter/media and complain... the school system is right to provide solid structure... when you're out in the world, you can wear whatever you want and do/live however you want... but in school your parent's aren't there to move the goal posts to accommodate for you or to twist arms so you can wear your favorite shoes... you're there to learn to
follow instructions and deal with new obstacles... not to complain every time you receive a little bit of humiliation for acting out when things don't go your way... the headmaster is right not to bend on the parent's whim
To me it is just
shoes, so why fuss over it, just return them to the store and get others? It wouldn't be any different if you picked up the wrong type of instrument for class or incorrectly lined paper... I made mistakes like that every year, we forgot something we needed and we had to go and exchange something for the right one
That's life.
