No tolerance policies run amuck

A four-year old boy was suspended for hugging his teacher.


<<< School administrators gave a 4-year-old student an in-school suspension for inappropriately touching a teacher's aide after the pre-kindergartner hugged the woman.

A letter from La Vega school district administrators to the student's parents said that the boy was involved in "inappropriate physical behavior interpreted as sexual contact and/or sexual harassment" after he hugged the woman and he "rubbed his face in the chest of (the) female employee" on Nov. 10. >>>


Can you imagine the mind that would either report a pre-schooler hugging a teacher or who would think that some sexual harassment policy applied? When did we lose all sense?

I wouldn't want to send my child to a pre-school where they weren't allowed to hug their teachers and you had to explain to them that hugging was inappropriate to show their affection to that teacher.
