No Hugs

Hugging ban

Comments 0 | Recommend 0

Giving a hug means breaking the rules at one Oregon middle school.

Molalla River Middle School says its tightened its grip on kids showing P.D.A.'s after students started showing up late to class because they were busy hugging each other and clogging the hallways.

Kids are now fighting the ban.  One 12-year-old is working with her principal and school board to put the squeeze on the anti-hugging laws.
