My daughter was dress coded in her elementary school – the teacher’s question was disgusting & completely inappropriate
A MOM has slammed her daughter's elementary school after the fifth-grade schoolgirl was dress coded for wearing clothes that teachers claimed didn't cover her butt.
Ashley Fontaine, a mom of two from Birmingham, Alabama, hit out at the school, accusing teachers of making vile comments about her young daughter's body.
"The teacher asked her and another girl if they wanted boys looking at their butts," Fontaine said.
"She said their shirts weren't completely covering their whole butt. It made me very frustrated and upset."
Fontaine told that dress codes are meant to keep clothing appropriate in a school setting, but it should be left at just that.
She is not the only mother concerned over elementary school’s intentions.
Multiple angry moms have taken to social media, attacking ridiculous rules which seem to specifically target young girls.
A mother recently revealed her daughter was dress-coded at school for wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans.
She explained her daughter was only showing less than an inch of skin and was thrown off guard by the school's response.
The mom said she believes the consequences can give off the wrong idea to children.

“Dress codes are outdated, sexist, and send the wrong message to kids,” she said in a TikTok explaining the situation.
“Stop teaching children that covering up is more important than learning.”
She added: “If schools would pay their educators their worth, we wouldn’t have low lives crawling the schools looking for a reason to disrupt kids’ days.”
Another mother, Tiffany, explained a similar instance where her 14-year-old daughter was dress-coded for only a small hole in her jeans.
"My 14-year-old got dress-coded for a quarter-sized hole just here on her jeans.”
Tiffany went on: "My daughter is conservative, dresses classy, never has her body parts hang out, but a quarter-sized hole in her jeans and she's dress-coded?”
"She's not distracting her friends, they socialize, they're on all her social media.”
One person commented on her TikTok blaming the teachers for the inappropriateness and said: "Dress codes aren't to keep students from being distracted, it's the teachers."
