Should Schools Ban Kids From Having Best Friends?
There's a case to be made for having a small group of close friends instead.

I am always fascinated by trends. And I am especially intrigued by the emerging trend among European schools, and now some American schools as well, to ban best friends.

That's right. Some schools are attempting to ban the entire concept of children having best friends.

The only "best friend" these leftists want kids to have is...  the state.

I think many kids will just ignore such efforts, and make friends as they see fit.

This is Behaviorism/Behavioral Science.

And every once in a while I catch flak here for my views on the mental health scam.

Shrinks, Psychologists, Therapy peddling Social Workers, . . . . this is their Playbook. It, when it's not actively selling drugs, is 100% Behaviorism/Social Engineering the subjects into Collectivist mind set.

Of course they will.

They're still young enough not to had Enough Leftist Filth brow-beaten and Drilled into them 24/7 yet.

The younger they are the less indoctrinated they are and the harder it is for these turds to convert them, . . . . yet.

So this stupid whore is pedaling garbage to get her need for publicity fulfilled. The article is a fraud. There is only one school that I can find that does this. It is in England and it is the school Prince Bill and Duchess Stupid send their kid. I cannot find any school anywhere else where this is being done. This stupid whore does not mention any schools doing this. Eff her and the toilet paper rag she is writing this in.

You can't stop people from having emotions,no matter how much a a soulless socialist you may have became just because YOU are such a  sociopath and don't understand emotions like friendship.

People are humans,and there's not a damn thing you can do about it.

In the socialist mindset the government has to hold the most important position.   A 'best friend' runs the risk of an individual having someone else to guide their behavior other then the government.

I never had a "best friend" as a child until I was in college.

I did fine.

But them I've always been a bit of a loner.

That's odd. By college I had learned to completely trust or believe no one.

We'll start with banning best friends among psychologists. Then we'll move on to school administrators and then teachers.

No best friends!

People, let me tell you 'bout my best friend
He's a warm hearted person who'll love me till the end

The answer is no, liberals can try and mandate all sorts of things to kids, but kids will always do what they want. When liberals mandated that no score be kept in sports because it was unfair to the losers, oh wait were not allowed to say loser it will hurt some snowflakes, the kids still kept score because they now that winning is important. So now they wanna try another bit of social engineering that totally goes against human nature? Good luck with that!

There's meme of Jason Statham out there that Unfortunately I don't feel good about posting because it Spells the word out.

He's glaring hard with muscular arms crossed, into the camera and the motto is:

"Trusting people has made me the A**hole I am today."
