AIBU or what. My school has changed its top from red to white. I have had my children back for two days and my dd white top has an impossible pasta sauce stain on which would have been OK with her red top. Feeling fed up already other parents are saying the same Have I the right to feel peeved at the change of the uniform policy

Never mind the food stains ... wait for the whiteboard marker!!

red there is another current thread where it says the best way to get whiteboard marker out is by using vodka....
Mine were guaranteed to get whiteboard marker on their 'for best' logoed school jumper/cardis on first wear ...and they were red...and they used to carry on wearing them.... PVA glue is another thing -but looks worse when wet...not really noticeable when dry ....
(I think black or maybe navy blue everything is the way to avoid whiteboard marker - in case the vodka doesn't work )

I washed and sent in stained, clue of wasps later and it will have cleared, white board marker pen however...... ( they still got sent in them). Not wasting money on new things for a couple of stains.

I second vodka. The more you drink, the less you care about the stains.

DD had white polo shirts at senior school. Any stains - pour on a bit of liquid Ariel before wash and stains always came out.

Not having a go at you, honestly, but do parents have to complain about everything?! It's not like you couldn't/wouldn't get stains on a non-school white, light coloured tshirt. Who would they complain to then?
