How are they going to enforce this?

And besides, it's not like I went to my best friend and said "Hi, best friend, how are you today?"

I don't care. I've never classified friends as best or... not best? anyway.

Nothing to get outraged about.

i'm not saying it's right, but having worked with little kids through college I can tell you that most of these policies come from schools not wanting to deal with a little kid having a tantrum and a parent not willing to discipline their child

I remember in second grade, I put 3 people down as my 'best friends' on this classroom book we made, and none of them put me on theirs. One other kid put me down as his best friend, but I didn't put him because he was a loser.

on the plus side, it's not really something that gets enforced. it's basically there so when Alex calls Bryce their best friend, and Charlie gets mad because they thought Alex was their best friend
Charlie throws a tantrum and the parents come into play and bitch and moan that Alex was being mean to their child
school can point to the policy of "no best friends" and tell all the parents to stop. no way to blame the school now

but if Charlie never bitched about it then no teacher would stop Alex and Bryce calling themselves besties because it's not really something they give a shit about

We had this at my school 20 years ago because the girls just used it as a mechanism to bully each other.

This isn't political or even anywhere near to official/commonplace

TC is just spouting false outrage to make fun of people

And deprive most of the losers here of their ability to reflexively shit on everything?

What use would their lives have then?

"Liberals resort to doing things that don't really matter at all." Okay, but this doesn't say much.

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".

Sounds like someone at the school tried to teach this to the kids in an effort to get them more open to other students, and news outlets sensationalized it into "best friend is offensive."
