Showing Original Post only (View all)Wonder Woman is too Violent for schools? [View all]
http://news.yahoo.com/school-bans-childs-wonder-woman-lunchbox-083018166.htmlSchool Bans Childs Wonder Woman Lunchbox Considered Too Violent
A childs school has banned her lunchbox, because it features the comic book character Wonder Woman.
The school sent the unnamed girl home with a letter for her parents, explaining why they deem it inappropriate which a family friend and Reddit user has posted online for the world to weigh in on.
Reddit user twines18 posted a photo of the letter sent, along with a couple of snaps of the childs lunchbox, explaining that the school finds Wonder Woman to be a figure that represents violence.
But its not just this particular superhero that the school has it in for they dont allow any superheroes to be worn on clothing, backpacks or lunchboxes of the children.

If you're going to be a superhero, you have to beat up some bad guys along the way

Well, if all superheroes are banned, then they cannot make an exception in this case.
