this one's bound to haunt her.....

I can't understand this at all.
First of all.....the girls, for sure, are not overdressed. They wore their "Sunday Best" most likely....and even though I never had an 8th grade graduation, it's something to be proud of, and certainly worthy of their finest outfits.
The boy on the other hand looks "damn-sharp" and probably very proud of that suit....he should be. He looks good. That lady is an absolute ogre for not allowing that kid to parade around in his suit.
I hope the parents follow through and get at least an apology from Ms. Wendy Jung. Personally, I think she should be fired.
How can you take a proud moment like graduating the 8th grade, and ruin it for those kids by not allow them to strut their stuff?
It has nothing to do with any 'financial burden', even if these kids were poor, they could have skrimped and saved for those outfits and probably felt extremely proud wearing them.

The more I think about this the angrier I get.....she's single-handedly yanked these kids pride right out from under them.
