The Pussification Has Spread Down Under

Telegraph:
Teachers who mark work in red pen could be inflicting psychological damage on their students, according to new guidelines.

Australian educators are being urged to correct homework in less aggressive colours like green and blue, in an attempt to improve mental health in the classroom.


Great white sharks, deadly snakes, crocodiles, barking spiders (no, really barking spiders), all of which can kill you, seem like a much bigger danger to the children of Australia than red pens. What can't kill you in Australia?
