[quote=Anonymous]OP here. FWIW, I asked the male teacher this morning what he thought of this policy and he said its offensive, sexist, and insulting. He said he is also not allowed to apply sunscreen or have any kids sit on his lap. What?! The kids are three years old for goodness sake. Sometime they are upset and need a lap to sit on. He noted that he has been a preschool teacher for over 20 years and this is the first place he has worked with such strict policies. And he and I both agreed that it was sending a terrible message to the kids I do appreciate everyone's comments and now feel that I understand better why some schools might feel they need this policy, but I feel awful for this teacher and really do wonder if it violates any kind of workplace discrimination laws. That was a great hypo about the bank employees.... [/quote]
