Topic Reading-Vol.1566-7/25/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Australian school bans clapping to protect sensitive children
Alternative ways to cheer and praise. Students of a school in Sydney are banned to clap their hands. This new policy was introduced in consideration of the students who are too sensitive to noise. Students now cheer silently, showing excited faces or punching the air.
Isn’t that practicable to eliminate the sound effect completely and depends on another sense, visual, to express one’s thought or emotion?
It seems that people are expected to be more sensitive to others and things aren’t that simple any longer.
Enjoy reading and thinking if you can adopt newly emerging policies or practices.
