Another stunning display of PC run amok.
(Daily Mail) – Teachers reprimanded two seven-year-old boys for playing army games – because it amounted to ‘threatening behaviour’.
The youngsters were disciplined after they were spotted making gun-shapes with their hands.Staff at Nathaniel Newton Infant School in Nuneaton, Warks., even told the boys’ parents to ‘reprimand’ them.
A father of one of the boys said: ‘This is ridiculous. How can you tell a seven-year-old boy he cannot play guns and armies with his friends.
‘Another parent was called over for the same reason.’We were told to reprimand our son for this and to tell him he cannot play “guns” anymore.
‘The teacher said the boys should be reprimanded for threatening behaviour which would not be tolerated at the school.
