extreme political correctness
Warning - stay off Santa's lap
December 10, 2002
BRITISH Santas better watch out after the service club Rotary International warned against letting kids sit on the laps of red-suited, white-bearded volunteers during the Christmas season.
"Santa, and his assistants, should not invite children to sit on Santa's knee ... (and) Santa or assistants should not actively invite children to 'kiss' Santa," the organisation said.
"It is preferable for children to shake hands or 'blow' a kiss," it added.
"If there is to be any contact with children, even if it is not physical contact, Santa must be accompanied by at least one other person," warned the club on its website.
For Rotarians not dressing up as Santa, but otherwise taking part in Yuletide activities for children, the guidelines suggest that "an appropriate adult-to-child ratio should be maintained".
Rotary spokeswoman Judith Diment told AFP the guidelines, first drafted in 1999 in response to child protection legislation, have been updated to conform with a British Home Office code of conduct to ensure that adults who deal with children have a clean record."I believe in the brotherhood of man, all men, but I don’t believe in brotherhood with anybody who doesn’t want brotherhood with me. I believe in treating people right, but I’m not going to waste my time trying to treat somebody right who doesn’t know how to return the treatment."

Success leaves clues. People who produce outstanding results do specific things to create those results
Nobody cares what you did yesterday or what you are going to do tomorrow. What is important is what you are doing NOW to solve our problem
