Not only American schools. I received a phone call from the school when my son was Pre-K because he had hugged one of the girls in his class. A "warning" call. WTF? The kid's 4 years old.

Next thing you know we'll be cited for sexual contact for coming out of a vagina at birth. Or, male babies will be cited for inappropriate contact for breast feeding.

Or..........when a dog decides to hump our leg, we'll get nailed for reverse bestiality
