Coddling campus crybabies: Students take up toddler therapy after Trump win
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/11/17/coddling-campus-crybabies-students-take-up-toddler-therapy-after-trump-win.html
Teddy bears, Play-Doh and coloring books are staples of nursery schools, but now they are showing up on college campuses to help distraught students cope with the election of a president they don’t like.
Around the nation, students are turning to the tools of toddlers as a bizarre form of therapy in the wake of Donald Trump's election last week. Colleges and universities are encouraging students to cry, cuddle with puppies and sip hot chocolate to soothe their fragile psyches, an approach some critics say would be funny if it weren't so alarming.
“This is an extreme reaction from millennials who are being forced to come to terms with the fact that we have a president that they don’t like –this is what losing feels like,†Kristin Tate, the 24-year-old author of "Government Gone Wild," told FoxNews.com. “We are grooming our students to be sensitive crybabies when we need to be showing students how to deal with world situations and how to be adults –there are no ‘safe spaces’ in the real world.â€
:wtf2: :mental:
It gets DUmber.
Among the top-notch schools sending devastated students back to their early childhood:
Cornell University recently hosted a “cry-in,†complete with hot chocolate and tissues for disappointed Hillary Clinton supporters.
University of Pennsylvania brought in a puppy and a kitten for therapeutic cuddling.
Tufts University held arts and crafts sessions for students.
University of Michigan Law School scheduled an event for this Friday called “Post-Election Self-Care With Food and Play†with “stress-busting self-care activities†including coloring, blowing bubbles, sculpting with Play-Doh and “positive card making.â€

At my age I hear two things from these twerps: job security, since they won't be competing for my job; having to support them with my taxes.
