Parent, student, or staff, what's the dumbest damn regulation you've personally come across at an educational institution?

No hats. Toques are allowed, everything else is banned. Thankfully it was not enforced.

Teachers are not allowed to finger prick a diabetic child to check their blood sugar. Hell, teachers aren't allowed to remove a fucking splinter.

I'm in Ontario, Canada. Fear of liabilities have made us a brain-dead society.

My secondary school had a card system based on behavior. If you got in troubled 3 times that semester you had to go to the "trainee" lunch line which had really long lines and less variety of food. You was also restricted from areas of the school at lunch like IT suite, music room and library.

There was this show on TV in the 90s where I live. They were making fun of what's happening in the news and politician.

One of the characters was a lowlife rocker called Bob Binette, and at 11-12 years old, boys found him very, very funny and would sometimes impersonate him in show and tell, or speak like him on the school grounds.

Well, of course, it got to a point where they would apply an interdiction of imitating Bob Binette on school grounds and in class.

I gotta admit, this guy was pretty funny.
