When Will The Madness End? Apparently Not With Outlawing Father Daughter Dances

A school district in Rhode Island is banning Mother-Son ballgames and Father-Daughter dances because they allegedly violate an anti-discrimination law.  The ACLU sent the school a letter on behalf of a concerned parent and the school's response was to ban these activities.

Anyone think that the world will be a better place if we eliminate all activities that have parents spending time with their children one on one?  If we as a nation react everytime one person doesn't agree with something, we will become a nation running around like a chicken with it's head cut off.  Maybe we are already to close to being there if this is any indication.

For all those single parents who are upset about their children's feelings about these activities because the other parent is not willing to participate, learn a lesson from one of my single friends.  Her girls were thrilled to be escorted to the dance by their grandfather.  No grandfather, then an Uncle, Male Friend, or Brother can stand in.
