They forgot to mention that babies find them and chew on them. I’ll be thrilled when this fad passes.

First they came for the peanuts, and not being a peanut, I said nothing.

Then they came for the novelty bracelets...

At least they’re cheaper than Webkinz.

Lightweights....

I remember when they banned these things in the early 70's. You could put a serious hurt on somebody with 'em.

Some just arrived at our house last this week. I didn’t buy them so I don’t know how my girls got them. I know my oldest daughter really likes the shark shaped one.

These bracelets have caused a “disturbance on campus”? What the heck????

My son graduated from there last school year, it seemed pretty harmless to me.

AS usual, he outgrew the craze. We sometimes forget that middle schoolers will do silly things just to fit in.

It would be better to just punish those kids that use the bands as weapons.

Well along with banning sliding boards that aren’t soft plastic and making sure our playgrounds are loaded with peatmoss, why the surprise? They see our kids as too DUMB to handle the danger of falling down and skinning their knees. We must protect them from their own dumbness. Yes, the nanny state is alive and well protecting our children - but lets PROMOTE ABORTION to middle schoolers instead! Yes PUSH, “SAFE SEX” to ensure they have sex. This is liberal logic!

I know EVERY materially driven treny kid will FEEL deprived with this ban. After all, this in on the TOP of their list as a priority. Forget about failing academics.

My high schooler collects them. She wore the cat this morning.

These bracelets are laced with a pharmasuetical element that makes kids more receptive to liberal ideas and socialist tendencies ...

Don’t be suprised when your kids ask to go to one of the “Obama summer camps” this summer. /sarc

Kids, kids, kids...the real moolah is in the Phiten Titanium Necklaces.

Hello.

One for baseball and one for track...but those darn coaches make you take them off if they pop out of your uniform.

They ‘make’ you bigger, faster, stronger AND $25.00 to $50.00 poorer.

This is ridiculous. Schools hand out condoms, but ban rubber band bracelets.

I suppose some “progressive” principal will soon come up with the idea of exchanging a condom for every Silly Band turned in.
