This is True

Derek Dahlke got a call at work from his son’s school after the 6-year-old tried, unsuccessfully, to kiss girls on the playground. “This kind of activity is not acceptable and we’re not going to tolerate it,” said principal Rob Becker of Jefferson Elementary School in Oshkosh, Wisc. “This seems very much like sexual harassment in my opinion.” The principal says that if it happens again, the boy will be suspended. “I couldn’t believe it — he’s 6!” Dahlke complained. “Saying it was sexual harassment is incredible. When I was a kid, I did the same things.” (Oshkosh Northwestern) ...Careful, Derek: anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of Zero Tolerance.
