I understand if the hugging continues beyond like 2-3 minutes but what if the person is upset or sad or suicidal and needs a friend. If there are intimate and/or sexual misconduct issues with certain students then the school needs to address these issues via counseling and curricula that address these types of acting out issues that often result from single parenting, abuse, etc. I wonder what the rate of teen pregnancy, drugs and substance abuse, drop out rate, graduation rate, attendance rate, etc. at this school. I wonder what if any data the School is trying to hide. The school needs to address these “real” issues and not take away from something that is natural and healthy especially during adolescent development. As for hugging promote it. There is a National Hugging Day and it is natural. Promote it. Here is the National Hugging website. http://www.geocities.com/hugging_whining/Hugging.html
