So anyone in Australia that's listened to the news in the past week would know about that school in Adelaide that banned hugging. I mean COME ON, what is the big deal? My primary school has had hugging band for years, and I remember cause in grade 7 we were always getting in trouble for it and my high school has the '30cm rule' which should be pretty self-explantatory.
But how about we put it into context hey? For primary school kids, school is pretty much a work place, and I don't know about you, but at my workplace we're not really allowed to go around hugging each other all the time.
Secondly, at that age, between 10 and 12, hugging is pretty much their emotional equivelent of the horizontal tango. Its worse then hugging because as my friend told me when I was nervous about holding my first boy friend's hand, "Hugging's harder I reckon, cause there's full body contact." And kissing? Well that's basically a marriage proposal.
I dunno, maybe this is just my opinion, maybe some other people will change their minds cause of what I've said. Let me know what you all think.
