Massachusetts preschool tells children to stop saying 'best friend'
Fox News, Apr 21, 2018, Greg Norman

None of the students at a Massachusetts preschool have a best friend. And that's an order.

Pentucket Workshop Preschool's "best friend" policy is being blasted by a parent who says her daughter got upset after reportedly being told by a teacher she couldn’t use the term because it could make other students feel excluded.

"How do you police a 4-year-old from expressing their feelings?" Christine Hartwell, whose daughter, Julia, attends the Georgetown school, told FOX25 Boston. "It's outrageous, it's silly [and] it hurts.

"It has been our experience (which spans decades) that the use of the term 'best friend,' even when used in a loving way, can lead other children to feel excluded [...] which can ultimately lead to the formation of 'cliques' and 'outsiders,'" the letter was quoted as saying.

It adds the school will continue to discourage children from saying the term.

They're grabbing the kids earlier and earlier ....   

In the near future all new parents will be provided with dvds/audio devices to be placed on the cribs of newborns instructing them at the earliest age on how to act in the new, Socialist States of America. President David Hogg will  have a role in the videos/recordings and give a special recording on the evils of guns and self defense.
Unless people start acting now.
