Father's Day Cards Ban 禁止贈送父親節(jié)卡片

Everyone wants to avoid discrimination in schools， but some people go too far. The principal of an elementary school in Scotland didn't want children without fathers to feel like they're different than their friends and banned the Father's Day Cards. It's unknown if those children feel better now， but this act is absurd (荒唐的) because of the fact that Mother's Day Cards were never banned.

Hugs Ban 禁止擁抱

A lot of schools across the United States and a lot of other countries have banned hugs because they are distractive. Why? There's not enough secularity (俗事)， or what? If showing emotions is banned， maybe kids shouldn't smile at school， shouldn't cry to avoid punishment ...

Dancing Ban 禁止跳舞

Remember what had Ren McCormack suffered in Footloose (電影《渾身是勁》，1984年上映的一部充滿青春活力的歌舞片) just to organize a simple dance? Well， it seems society changes very slowly. Even today dancing in schools is banned for being provocative (挑逗的). And we are not talking about striptease dance (脫衣舞); the Hokey-Pokey (霍吉-科基舞，伴著同名倫敦民歌的一種傳統(tǒng)舞蹈) and the Chicken dance (雞舞，派對中很受歡迎的一種舞蹈) are banned as well.

Blogging Ban 禁用博客

Students could easily become victims to sexual abusers， so they shouldn't have a blog. That's the explanation that Kieran McHugh from Catholic high school in Sparta， New Jersey， gave to his students. A lot of the kids were protesting， but the Principal thought he knew better. It is unknown if he is proud of the results of his measure.

Red Ink Ban 禁用紅筆批改作業(yè)

Students are not the only victims of principals' weird decisions. Perhaps some kids had nightmares from seeing red ink on their papers too often. A school in United Kingdom banned the red ink， because it was too upsetting for children， and put in use only blue and black ink. When they become too upsetting， maybe we will see Fs on papers in green or orange ink.

The Dictionary Ban 禁用字典

Yes， you read that right. In some schools in United Kingdom the dictionary was banned because the kids were searching the meanings of \"inappropriate\" words. However， the anatomy (解剖學(xué)) book wasn't banned， although it consists of drawings of some \"inappropriate\" parts of the body. Maybe this book is the reason why children know \"too much\" at early age.

Darwin T-Shirt Ban 禁止穿有關(guān)達(dá)爾文學(xué)說圖案的T恤

When Missouri's Smith Cotton High School band designed these \"evolution of brass (銅管樂器)\" T-shirts， they had no idea they would cause such a stir (轟動). Several parents demanded the shirts， which seem to support Darwinism (達(dá)爾文學(xué)說)， be banned because of their religious beliefs. The school complied (順從) and bought all the shirts from students for $700 to keep them out of school.

POGs Ban 禁止玩翁仔標(biāo)紙牌

POGs (翁仔標(biāo)，舊時供兒童玩樂用的紙牌) are one of the favorites for all kids who grew up in 1990s. Nevertheless， some people have found them to be too violent. Because of that， school principals from Washington and Arizona have banned POGs for causing stress to the young gentle mind.
