"Children shouldn't have best friends, private school head argues" ... Should children be discouraged from having best friends?

"Ben Thomas, the school’s headmaster, said there was no official policy to that effect but he supported the idea.

He said: “There is sound judgment behind it. You can get very possessive friendships, and it is much easier if they share friendships and have a wide range of good friends rather than obsessing too much about who their best friend is."

Yes a brain dead liberal telling people how to live their lives, trying to legislate fairness and equality while being a fascist totalitarian. Any human interaction which is perfectly normal, modern day pseudo liberals wish to eradicate. They are a sick bunch and unfortunately getting sicker.

Why can't you have a wide range of friends and be close to some more than others ? It is only natural. Liberalism no longer subscribes to logic but rather a police state where they control every mind, warp every heart and destroy every soul. Common sense, traditional family values, real human emotions and natural law are enemies to these so called do gooders.
