    How are they going to enforce that? We had nicknames for most of our teachers and I don’t think any of those had approval.

    of course, they dehumanize and degrade these kids further by referring to their names as merely “nicknames” they have to be approved to use, making sure you know that they’re in control and stripping as much dignity as they can from the kids and parents in the process. as always, the cruelty is the point.

    why the hell should any school have control over someone’s name? fuck them.

    it’s fascism.

    So…

    Any idiot can tell a class clown with supportive parent is going to do a form saying their nickname is Mike Hunt or any other thing Bart Simpson pranked Moe with

    And now the teacher/school will either have to pretend they don’t see the issue or open themselves up to legal issues.
