A article on NIH.gov titled “A legal right to die: responding to slippery slope and abuse arguments” reads‚ “ To be forced to continue living a life that one deems intolerable when there are doctors who are willing either to end one’s life or to assist one in ending one’s own life‚ is an unspeakable violation of an individual’s freedom to live—and

Most high school students are teenagers. They are no longer children‚ but they still are not adults. Thus‚ they often want to wear latest fad clothes when they go to schools. However‚ I prefer the idea that they should be required to wear uniforms. First of all‚ uniform is one of the best features of each high school. Every country has its own national flag. Every football team has its own club emblem. Similarly‚ every high school has its own uniform. Uniform helps us to distinguish among schools

School Uniforms: Good or Bad? Kelly Wiles Picture this: walking into a school and seeing that America’s youth is not being judged by what they are wearing: whether their style is "cool" or not.

Having a school uniform isn’t ideal to every student‚ having to wear the same clothes over and over again everyday. “A female student at Buchanan High School said students are fighting back-not only because they feel they’re not free to express themselves‚ but also because they believe that clothing rules shouldn’t be different between genders” (Gabrielle Sorta).

Ever since the dawn of civilization‚ human beings have tortured one another for a variety of reasons. Some did it as punishment for perceived wrongdoings or crimes‚ others simply to send a message. Torture also has been used militarily‚ as a way to potentially extract useful information out of enemy soldiers. There have even been some who torture others merely for personal pleasure.

Schools should not enforce uniforms because studies have shown that there is no connection between uniforms and school safety or academic achievement‚ it violates a student’s right to freedom of speech and expression‚ and enforcing uniforms at public schools is unfair to people who cannot afford them.
