When a kindergarten student in Minnesota was removed from class for dressing too inappropriately, her mother took a stance against the school for demeaning her 5-year-old daughter. The mother also expressed her views on social media, where her opinions were met with resounding praise.

Society’s View on Women’s Clothing

Women have always been the target of criticism and belittlement for the clothes that they wear. Society has taught the world to scrutinize female clothing trends and label fashion choices as “inappropriate.” So, it’s no surprise that last year, a young girl was subject to the same injustice.
