Can't get in trouble I'm wearing shorts!

Well, when I was a teen,it was an idea generally accepted in the world of education that a boy or a teen dressed by defect in shorts trousers was better raised. obedient polite and humbe than a young boy or teen in long pants , was easier to educate and especially couln't get into trouble at home or at school , It was and it's still a wishful and false idea as you can read it in my posts below. I was dressed in short trousers longer than most of my buddies in my teen years but it didn't prevent me from getting into trouble at school and at home. Moreover, I was under the impression that the prefect of discipline or my parents were more inclined to slap or strap the back and the front of my legs when I was acting up because they felt that I was so vulnerable with such exposed skin.
