Would you let your son wear leggings to school?

That's a complicated question. I would say it depends on where I live, how old my son was, how well I knew the school dress code, and whether or not my son was tough enough to withstand some taunts and teasing from others and that's just a few I can think of.
I know times are changing and hopefully it's not a big deal anymore because to me it's really just so silly I would let my son wear anything he wants to at home but carefully explain to him the possible repercussions of doing it in public. I look forward to a day when people of any gender will be able to wear whatever they like, but that probably won't happen in my lifetime.
We should remember that women had to fight to be able to wear pants.. for a long time that was not allowed in public so times do change, but in answer to your question yes I probably would.
