Amen, and a lot of parents AND schools don't hold kids accountable. I think accountability, discipline and teamwork all start with a uniform though... (perhaps it's the military in me). I would invite anyone to come to the high school with me for a couple of hours and watch. Watch the kids walk right in front of teachers and administration wearing clothes in a manner that are OBVIOUSLY outside the guidelines or holding hand, kissing ect. and the teachers/admin turn the other way or not say anything. In some of the classes you have the kids basically telling the teachers to "shut up" and such. Don't believe me...go see.
