Someday, when you actually procreate instead of perfecting the ritual, you'll understand that 99% of the public schools have rules like this because of the litigious parents that want the best for their kids.
I'm actually surprised that a guy that lives a stones throw from 536 of the most litigious people in the world doesn't expect this as normal.
Don't mistake that for me supporting it, but when you want the state to constantly provide for you, you play by their rules.
You are full of shit.
