    Preventing kid’s natural inclination to be kind to their friends by making a rule against being kind to your friends. Sick.

        From my experience being a poor kid, you have to give back whatever they shared with you and you both get yelled at and or separated

        They usually don’t tell parents cuz they know how bad it sounds lmfao

    blind self interest is human nature, which is why they have to make explicit rules against doing anything else

    so this is specifically designed to make kids whose parents don’t put money on their account feel bad, right?

      Reminds me of a (lib?) I was chatting with years ago who said he’s against racism but that he doesn’t see anything wrong with our border policies and that people shouldn’t be breaking the law by crossing the border illegally and had no idea what the people agreeing with him were about until they started saying the bullying and arrests of the kids of immigrants is the fault of their parents and he had a huge shock that these were the people he’d been agreeing with and who’d agreed with him this whole time (no I can’t break this sentence up and make it shorter).

      What if a stranger buys them an ice cream, therefore, not a friend.

    This would be a good opening paragraph in a dystopian YA novel.

      Note from editor: This is too on the nose and not believable for our target audience, we are aiming at young adults, not pre schoolers, who would believe that dystopian societies would limit the buying and exchanging/sharing of ice cream. This only works if you mention that the evil regime is socialist.

    If I was a parent I’d probably just buy a bunch of ice creams, walk in, and start handing them out to all the kids who didn’t get one.

    Absolute face move, would get a mega crowd pop.

    “Greetings children, it is I, father of Kim-Jong (my child’s name). If you do not have an ice cream, you may now have one.”

    No teacher is powerful enough to stop children from taking the ice cream. There would be riots. I would become a martyr.

      You would become known as the reason behind the school’s decades long irrational ban on ice cream. Your name will be sung of in song and poem for generations.
