As I was browsing the net, my attention was caught by an article entitled, School Bans Father-Daughter Dances. It summarizes some kind of a law about father-daughter dances were banned in schools. This article contains how it started and how the community reacted on this sudden change of a traditional event.
Todd Starnes quoted, "A school district in Rhode Island has ended the traditional father-daughter dance because the longtime tradition violated the state’s gender discrimination law."
This introduction really made me thought that it's weird. For me, this kind of events would help father-daughter relationships become stronger. A question "why would they banned such events?" came onto my mind.
Furthermore, Starnes quoted a father's response, “I think it’s a shame,” parent Sean Gately told Fox News. “It’s an assault on traditional family values.”
I agree with this parent because he was looking forward to this kind of events and have an opportunity to have a bond with their children.
In the end of the article, it can be understood that this law has not been clearly fixed because of debates.
For me, this law should not be legalized. It has a point but it really depends on how parents would handle relationships with their children.
