New York Post reports:
"A Staten Island, New York school cancelled the traditional father-daughter dance this coming Friday because of the Department of Education’s new gender guidelines."The DOE ordered schools to “eliminate” any “gender-based” practices like the dance in a March 2017 policy update unless they serve a “clear” educational purpose."The PS 65 shindig, set for Feb. 9, was abruptly postponed until next month after the school’s PTA realized the dance would run afoul of the rules.“Until we understand what we are legally permitted to do, we need to table this event,” PTA president Toni Bennett wrote to a private school-parents group on Facebook."Some parents were hopping mad at what they saw as political correctness intruding on a quaint tradition, now in its third year.“ 'They’re trying to take away everything that everybody grew up on and has come to know and I don’t think it’s fair or right,” said Matthew West, a 32-year-old father of two daughters at the school, Lily and Willow. “They should leave it the way it was — father-daughter, mother-son.”"Of PC culture, he said, “I hate it . . . People are just becoming too scared to talk.”“ 'It’s not fair at all,” said Jose Garcia, 37, who’s gone to the past two dances with his 9-year-old daughter, Jolene. “I have nothing against no one but I don’t think that it should affect the school, or the kids for that matter.”"A disappointed Jolene said, “They had a dance party. We got to wear dresses and hang out with our friends.”“ 'All this gender crap needs to just stop,” said mom Akaia Cameron, who added that her third-grader had a “great time” with dad last year." . . .
