Just when you thought you'd heard the last of these stories.

Such is the new breed of narcissists these days, getting younger and younger, whining on social media about every perceived slight, and getting encouraged to do so by their equally narcissist parents. Obviously, they've learned that challenging a school dress code is a great way to get 'viral' attention and pat yourself on the back for being such a 'hero.'

A high school student in Kentucky says that she was “extremely humiliated” by a teacher who reprimanded her for a pair of overalls, which she alleges are within the school’s dress code.

Courtney Robertson, 15, is a student at Lawrence County High School where a teacher sent her home on Monday morning because of her outfit. According to the student’s tweet, where she expressed she’s upset about the incident, she had dressed according to the student handbook. She claims that the teacher who approached her didn’t care.

Why is this kid getting buzz, those shorts are clearly too short.

Lawrence County High School Principal Christy Moore tells Yahoo Lifestyle, “It is not our practice or procedure to provide information about an individual student.” However, she provided a copy of the dress code in its entirety, which wasn’t readily available online. In it, the rule about shorts and skirts states that they “must be no shorter than 3 inches above the knee without the waist being rolled including those worn over undergarments.”

"Teachers" don't send anyone home, that's administrative.


If the code is 3 inches above she's way out of compliance.

No, only about eight inches or so above her knees. Code is three.

Those things are WAY too short to wear to school. This starts with the parents. I see what my kids wear EVERY DAY and if me and their mother don't approve they ain't wearing it!
