Many of those “morality Contracts” seem pretty insane and also override parental rights.

Many years ago, as a youth leader, I took a load of kids to an amusement park. A local Christian school was also there. One of the young ladies in my group was terrified because she was wearing very modest shorts and a T-shirt, both of which were forbidden by the school.

Keep in mind this was summer. The school kids were at an amusement park wearing khaki pants, collared shirts and the girls were in dresses (Inappropriate attire for amusement parks)

At one point, she saw the Principal in the distance and began to hide. I told her that if anyone approaches her, she is to refer them to me. She was there that day under the authority of her parents, our church and me, the youth leader. The school held no authority over her that day.

What does the school have to do with this? I’m not getting it. Why would she be worried about some other school’s principal?

As for “girls were in dresses (Inappropriate attire for amusement parks)”. Somehow, they managed back in the ‘50s and earlier! There’s nothing wrong with skirts and so on at an amusement park. Inappropriate, my foot.
