Spawn's dad Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 OAK PARK, Ill. - If you need a hug, you won't get it at Percy Julian Middle School. Principal Victoria Sharts banned hugging among the suburban Chicago school's 860 students anywhere inside the building. She said students were forming "hug lines" that made them late for classes and crowded the hallways. "Hugging is really more appropriate for airports or for family reunions than passing and seeing each other every few minutes in the halls," Sharts said. Another reason to institute the no-hugging policy was that some hugs could be too long and too close, she said. "There is another side to the issue when a hug is either unwanted or becomes inappropriate as judged by one of the students involved," Sharts wrote in a statement to parents. "On occasion, we do deal with those incidents. The goal is always to promote safe and orderly hallways where everybody can get by, be safe, and be on time." Everyone knows that hugging just leads to cuddle parties. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

napoleon Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 at our school (a high school, full of semi-mature people) hugging is considered P.D.A. therefore, it's not allowed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
