Well, I think that's a pretty interesting question for me because I consider myself to have a really rebellious nature, and there are actually a lot of rules in our school that I cannot understand. The first one is a strict dress code, and the biggest problem for me is the elimination of digital devices. To be honest, there are a lot of reasons why our school administration decided to implement these rules. For example, there is a concern about the spread of digital addiction among youth, and to eliminate this problem, our teachers and parents decided to take our phones and get rid of these digital devices at least for the school day. Honestly, there are some good aspects of this rule, but I still don't like it. Regarding the strict dress code, I can see from a professional perspective that there are benefits to this rule, such as balancing different social layers, like those who are less fortunate and those who are very wealthy. However, by having a simple dress code for everyone, it could eliminate issues like bullying or lack of self-confidence. Still, I would love to wear something more personal in school that expresses myself more than just a simple dress or a really long skirt that I dislike. I attend a very strict school, and there are many rules that you cannot simply avoid. If you break the rule, there will be consequences from the school administration, such as a meeting with parents and so on.
