I have been fighting against silent lunch since third grade. I went to the vice principal, and I told her what was happening at lunch. I did that again in fourth grade, and now I am uncertain about what I can do. Each day, we should have at least 1 social hour. This should include lunch. Socializing is healthy anyways. Some people have been forced to lose part of their own recess, solely because they talked during the lunch period. I stand up against this unfairness, and I would like to ask ptotoday.com to make this a main topic. Action Now!

the bill of rights says that ALL have FREEDOM OF SPEECH! i'm just a little too scared to do anything yet. i'm working up to it though, and i am doing research to make my plan foolproof.
It sounds more like a socialistic country, how can they ask elementary students to not speak during lunch
Lunch as well as family dinner is time to converse. What state is this taking place in?
