New S.C. law lets students bring sunscreen to school without a doctor’s note - Lemmy.world

What the fuck is wrong with America?! Land of free huh
Children aren’t treated like humans here. They’re treated like prisoners.
Coincidentally, another group who should be treated as humans but aren’t.

Just seen an advert from CNN via the 1980s on youtube, “invest in this, invest in that, invest in children our most precious natural RESOURCE”

they are resources to be invested in apparently

It’s an insurance thing. If they say no sunscreen they can’t then mix up sunscreens or sunscreen and something else and cause a reaction they would then be liable for.

I didn’t look into it but I imagine there’s language to make the parent responsible for indelibly labeling the sunscreen with name of student parent and contact info.
