Teenage Aspie sent home from school as her tie was 'too short'...

Holy crap! She was asked to fix the tie and she did. They gave her the boot regardless. STUPID STUPID STUPID! Could the thing be a bit too small, maybe?
 
"Tying ties becomes natural very quickly"
So what's the point in learning to do it daily in school.

And only a small percentage of jobs requires you to wear suit and ties. I'm aspiring to be a nurse, why would I need to be able to wear a suit and tie in a hospital anyway?
Acting nice and civil in a professional way isn't a thing you learn by wearing a suit, you can learn that just as well in jeans or a kilt.
EricD here, I can hit a golf ball 250 yards, break a concrete paver with my bare hands, & sprint to to almost 20 mph at 42 years old, but never could tie a necktie!
