Topic: Hugging and Kissing | |
---|---|
it was probably in the section of the book that was labeled ..."It's The Parent's Responsibilty" I'd like to see a school handbook with that section in it. Actually, the whole handbook for the parents is basically a list of what is the parent's responsibilty and what the expectations are for attending the school. So, if there was nothing in the handbook on the "no touching" rule then the school failed to do their job in notifying the parents. "Ruth" the parents were already informed of the no-hug policy ..Winx"s concerned was about the hurt feelings that may come due to the enforcement of that policy .. the parents can opt to let the school explain to their child why their child shouldn't hug another child but I just thought maybe it's the parents responsibilty to explain it to the child .. No, we weren't informed of the "no-hug" policy. It was not in writing anywhere. I believe the teacher decided the rule at recess at her discretion. My child had this teacher for two different grades (small Lutheran school). That teacher was very mean!! did you ever ask the teacher why she enforced a non-hug policy? I asked her the next day. I asked why my child was given a time-out on a bench at recess for giving another child a hug. She said that there was a "no contact" rule. I looked at her in surprise and said, "They're 5 years old!" I went home and double checked the school's handbook. It talked about sexual contact. |

This parent sees no problem with a 5 yr. old giving another 5 yr. old a hug. That is a loving child. Nobody cared about these things when we were young, and I don't think that there is anything wrong with us. "Invisible" ...er..I'm not sure it fair to everyone else to include yourself into that mix |

It's a shame that it has come down to this. |
