In a move that has taken some parents by surprise, the school department has announced that it is banning traditional “father-daughter” and “mother-son” activities, saying they violate state law. Supt. Judith Lundsten said the move was triggered by a letter ifrom the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of a single mom who had complained that her daughter had not been able to attend her father-daughter dance.Why is it I think a father attempting to attend a mother-son dance started out as audacity, yet this is a result of a single mother feeling left out and if she couldn’t go to the father-daughter dance, no one would?
