Hold the hugs! Teen suspended for spreadin' the love
Sure, we all know make-out seshes in the halls aren’t
exactly school-worthy behavior. But hugging a bud before class? Apparently
that’s off-limits now, too.
A school in Central Florida has suspended a 14-year-old
honor-roll student. Why? Because he spied a friend before class and reached out
to hug her…right in front of his principal. Though the rule is printed in the
school’s student handbook, which also prohibits hand-holding, the guy and his
mom are fighting back. The hug, they argue, was 100-percent platonic. Why
punish such innocent behavior, especially in a realm where bullying reigns
supreme?
Have you ever been suspended for hugging a friend? What
do you think of this school rule, sweeties?
