SUNBURN CORRECT

Worcestershire County Council in the UK has instructed the schools within their domain to NOT apply sun block to young schoolchildren so as to "avoid allegations of child abuse." One furious mother of a boy whose allergy to the sun flared up as a result of his consequent direct exposure feels that this is "bureaucracy gone mad." And is this not, therefore, a form of child abuse? (Via Jerry Lerman).
