FOX 26 Reporter Gabby Hart explains what happened and why the player's parents aren't happy.A local father claims his daughter faced hair discrimination during a high school volleyball game after a student was forced to remove beads from her braids before the game started.
However, on Tuesday during an away game versus Jersey Village HS, she was forced to remove those beads. "She felt humiliated and disrespected because he was loud and aggressive about it. He told her, hey you knew better, you tried to get away with it that you knew you shouldn't, but you tried to do it anyway," Carson explained.
"If you know anything about this kind of hair and these beads. it's very hard to get them out, so she was asking the audience and the other team for scissors; one mom had a pocketknife, so she had to use a pocketknife to cut the rubber bands off," he said.
Not allowing beads in sports is not a new thing and it's about safety. And was she forced to remove them or did she choose to remove them so she could play? Some people really get stupid with 'discrimination' claims.
They're worried about beads falling out and causing slips or falls. The discrimination portrayal is pathetic and lame.
