Now that we are past the devastation of the floods in GA, the North East area has turned to a subject that if obviously much more engaging... whether a teenage boy can go to school dressed as a girl

 

The school told him upon enrollment that he could wear what he wanted, but the bright pink wig and Dynasty hat was distracting enough that a fight broke out in school as one person ridiculed him and another person stood up for him.  Based on this incedent, he was asked to tone it down.  He un-enrolled himself from school instead.  He wasn't willing to compromise... even for his own safety.

 

Escobar's appearance created an uproar on campus last week after he enrolled at the Kennesaw school. School administrators said their main goal was to keep the student safe, and they made accommodations for him.

 

It probably isn't so much that he wears girls jeans or even the occasional skirt to school.  It is that he dresses in a way that no typical schoogirl would ever dress.  He was given permission to dress like a girl for school.  Instead he dresses more like a lady of the evening.
