'The dress code we have established requests that the children not bring violent images into the building in any fashion — on their clothing (including shoes and socks), backbacks and lunchboxes. We have defined "violent characters" as those who solve problems using violence. Super heroes certainly fall into that category.'<\/i><\/p>\n

This isn't the Nu52 "Wonder Woman hacking at folk with a sword" character, but a Wonder Woman who preaches peace, is in fact sent out to "Man's World" to bring a gospel against the bloodshed there, and only uses violence as a last resort.<\/p>\n

The blanket condemnation of "super heroes" as inappropriately violent for school kids strikes me as sensitivity gone mad. One might as easily suggest that Bugs Bunny would be similarly condemned, as might a picture of a police officer, or the figures on Mount Rushmore (warmongers all).<\/p>\n

With the proviso that we don't know the age range involved, were I the parents in this case, I'd have a long talk with the school administration. I'd also consider yanking my kid from a school that clearly can't teach history in any coherent fashion.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
