They banned the I <3 boobie's bracelet at my school

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, 'cause the 3 year old I saw wearing them at my church the other day was definitely up to something nefarious o_o

I've heard of schools banning them for being distracting, but I haven't heard of it being because of gangs.. I work in an elementary school and the silly bandz are distracting and cause a lot of arguments. I can see why some schools ban them for that, but not for gangs. That's just silly.

in my area its because they are "gang related" I live in like the most hillbilly place, not saying that hillbillies can't be in gangs, but its very unlikely for where i live.

I hate it when schools ban anything, like jeez do we get any personal freedom? I remember they used to bitch about those sex bracelets but they really were just bracelets, i used to wear a jillion of them. Anyway, thank god im out of high school now and dont have to deal with that bullshit

it's moronic! they won't let me bring a plastic butter knife for my lunch, but they let you bring compasses with at least two pokey things that can, and WILL draw blood.

I'm in high school and one of the main math teachers is fighting to ban the word "legit" because he says it's gang related.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Its because they are distracting. Not gang related. Well thats the case at my brothers school...but yeah. So many people got them and are going "Oooh! Mines a castle! Oooh! Mines a dolphin!! Oooh! Mines a penis!" That they had to ban them. :(

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I didn't know they were getting banned, wow. Haha. Everyyybody at my school wears them. :/

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Its just the lower grades, they aren't allowed. We aren't allowed piercings or unnatural hair color either... And if like three people wear white shirts on the same day they get called to the office for gang related things. What are the chances of a couple people wearing white shirts the same day? VERY HIGH
