hugs deffinitely should not be banned cus htey are hramless... and sometimes they make ppl feel better. plus it is part of human nature and jus show tht this person is ur friend and tht u have friendly feelings for tht person sexual feelings... so no hugging is harmless n ur stupid to think tht it is bad cus its not hurting anybody.... and it is a nice greeting and it helps u to feel comforted and let u know tht ppl r there lookin out for and they will hav ur back...

Hugs are meant to be public. Whether your having a bad day or a good day hugs are handy dandy...Overall hugs are harmless and should not be band.

they are jsut a way oto say hi it doesnt hurt anyone. just get off their nuts its just a hug. its just like huging your relatives when you see them.

do whatever you want, if not, then you mite as well die.

I was a high school teacher with responsibility for hall monitoring. I know first hand how hands and bodies drift into inappropriate positions while students claim "innocence". A "holding hands only" policy allowed our students to give and get support from one another yet was easier for staff to monitor. Music Videos often encourage a no limits approach to dress and behavior that is inappropriate for public/social settings like schools and jobs sites. Isn't part of our job as educators to help students understand (and practice) the difference between appropriate behavior in private verses public settings?
