I wish I'd had a teacher like you and a class like that when I was in high school, Kristin.
me, too. I think it also depends on the parents and what the principal thinks they will complain about. When I was working on a play in my high school after I had graduated from college, I was basically told that we could not mention God/Faith, because of separation of church and state. The play we were doing was the Diary of Anne Frank, so it sort of needed a mention, but they were afraid parents would think we were preaching at their children. (this is upstate ny about 10-12 years ago, so things may have changed for the better)

This is still very true. Draconian Dictator thinks they will complain about everything. The students feel like he treats them like they are in elementary school instead of high school.

Not surprising. After all, he treats the teachers like they were in elementary school.

True. We keep expecting to have a "Time out Chair" in the teacher's lounge.
I think it's weird. But I also think the resort's dress code is weird. They should just not allow kids. Because it's VACATION. Kid's shouldn't have to wear shoes on vacation unless it's for safety reasons. Like frostbite.
I'm guessing it's like the swanky resort I stayed at in Mexico - they have very high end restaurants where they go to lengths to keep out beachwear. It's not for the resort as a whole - and they aren't your only dining choices.
Why you're bringing the kids to one of those places in the first place I can't answer. Or why you feel the need to bitch if you do.
Kristin just showed me Dr. Horrible. It was 50% awesome.
I have to confess, I've never heard of Carly Churchill.
Possibly because it is actually
Caryl
Churchill. An alternate spelling of Carol.

Caryl Churchill
Haven't heard of her, either.
I'm not surprised folks haven't heard of her. She's a late 20th century playwright. Amazing stuff, a very strong woman writer. It's a shame that she and others like her are not better known.
