Why?

Why?

Philosophers would answer Why Not? But since there are SO many different potential why's, which one would you like answered?

This is EXACTLY the problem.

Which is why I think a Fierceboarder who works in journalism should write another article with World Elite's side of the story. Then the article can be linked in other news sources.

Or one of the parents who witnessed this mom's meltdown should call the original news station that ran this story.

*WINK WINK* Her username is escaping me.

I feel bad for the girl regardless. Hopefully she is eventually able to find a new gym.

Me too! :(

I read somewhere that the team voted to do straight hair - like all the girls on the team had a vote and straight win over curly. To me that sounds like the gym really didn't care either way if they left the matter up to a vote of pre-teen girls. And it being by a vote may have made the girl feel a little more outnumbered/bullied in some way.

I still think there are more to sides to this story than WE is 100% right and the mom is 100% wrong.

At this point... never.

Everyone get ready for the new Fallaw Elite Allstars. Pretty sure they'll just open their own gym. Her daughter can be the center of everything, on every team. And no one's hair will be harmed in the process.

I'm surprised they haven't created a Go Fund Me to realize this goal. Or perhaps they will just wait for the proceeds of their hair discrimination case.

.... Is that story over yet?

No?!

Well, people have to talk about something other than the comments Peter Mansbridge made about Trudeau and the Cabinet riding the bus...:p

Well, I didn't even know he had something to say about that. I'll have to look it up!

Wouldn't the name be bad luck, though? If it's pronounced the way I think it's pronounced.

 

[Official OWECheer]

The fact that people are stupid enough to refer to Woodlands as a middle school cheer team, a single cheer team, or a pep squad says a lot about how little they understand.

How do you think it's pronounced?

 

[SL&AM]

Just scrolled through showcase pictures---for being anti curl, there certainly were a lot of curls in those heads!

In this context, FAW-LAW(L OVER THE MAT).

See why it's bad luck?
