[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it's basically a pretty sexist policy, given how many teen girls have cramps. When I was in school, if you needed pain medication, you could go to the nurse's office, and she would call your parent who could give oral authorization over the phone. They don't do that anymore. You need a doctor's note and it needs to be really specific about the dosing and frequency. 99% of the teen girls are carrying motrin or tylenol in the pouch they use to carry tampons and pads. No one is searching those. If they are discrete about taking them, no one cares. My kid also takes Tums as she gets bad stomach aches. [/quote]
