Smelly

Does anyone else find this kind of worrisome?

I mean, it makes sense to me why they want to ban fragrances, hell, I want to ban fragrances here just so I'm not choking on Axe body spray every time I walk down the Upper School hallway, but it's kind of disconcerting that it might actually be a neccessary precaution. I remember when I was in HS (which seems like a really really long time ago when in reality, it isn't). Sure, kids abused fragrances just like they do now, but there weren't any allergies or migraines triggered because of it. I feel like kids these days are a lot weaker than they used to be. I mean, when I go out for recess duty, I have to carry an EPI pen with me at all times because there are quite a few students in the lower school who have severe food allergies. I think a scary portion of the student population can't even touch a peanut without risking anaphylactic shock. There are actually signs around the lower school that say "Nut Free Zone". It's ridiculous! I know why the precautions are taken but I think it's kind of sad that it's neccessary TO take them.
