I may sound a bit of a hippie here but more love/care/kindness does not do the world any harm, and no children are going to be scarred from seeing affection (if that's in any way part of the issue).
There was a rule at my primary school that pupils were not allowed to touch other pupils. No exceptions. If a friend was upset,you weren't allowed to give him or her a hug or even put your hand on their shoulder.
I thought it was horrible then as a 7 year old, and I still think It's horrible now.

Sounds like that school in Croydon that banned hugs etc threatening detention for Huggers. Was it one we'd know?
I must say I'm tempted to organise mass hugging next week. With any luck, the message may get across loud and clear.
