“My day was horrible. I got in trouble at school because everyone kept complimenting me about my suit. Well . . . I had to respond and tell them thank you. And then I would get in trouble for talking! People should just be quiet. I should be able to wear my suit without all of the comments!”
That was the answer to my question, “How was your day?” Poor kid had it rough. The sad part is that the boy loves his suit and he especially loves the compliments. But after today, he doesn’t want to wear his suit anymore because the teacher told him that his suit is a distraction and that he probably shouldn’t wear it anymore. I think more people should wear them. It is sad when a child in a suit is such a rare anomaly.
I love when Ben wears his suit! And shame on his teacher for calling it a distraction. If his classmate were that excited about it maybe she should have given him 5 min. of class time to share about his suit so the curiosity is satisfied by all. I love the kids who dress creatively within the realms of dress code rules. Keep dressing sharp Ben and be proud of it!
