My school administration is too fucking strict. They didn't let us fucking leave the dance when we wanted to without parental consent, they never fucking let us dance like we want to, they make me FUCKING RAGE!

Now, I am a Menshevik when it comes to this. I don't party hard like my classmates, I don't drink or do drugs regularly, but when this shit happens every single damn time, you can't help but get fucking tired of it!
My physics teacher went off on a tangent and spent a good 20 minutes or so talking about school dances. When she was new, someone asked her to volunteer as a teacher supervisor -- they didn't have nearly enough. She agreed, of course, thinking that it couldn't be that bad.
Her experience was atrocious. Walking along the halls outside the gym, she hears two students engaging in premarital sexual conduct. So she starts to whistle, says something like, "Teacher walking through the hall~" and gives them time to zip up and leave. They do so.
Having decided she's had enough of that, she goes outside to patrol the proximate premises. Around the back of the school, she finds two small students sitting on a bench, both probably in seventh grade. The girl is on the guy's lap, but they're moving oddly, gyrating. When she approaches, the conversation goes something like, "Put that back in your pants."
The boy complies, and the two quickly disperse.
My physics teacher heads to the washroom, planning on taking a short break (having already most assuredly decided never to volunteer as a supervisor again) only inside she finds a girl no older than 14 expelling her stomach contents into the sink. As the teacher enters, the girl turns around (perhaps from surprise) and projectile vomits onto her.

What I'm saying is that school dances seem like pretty terrible places out here, and while I'm sure there's a gradient between "face-to-face with a little bit of space" and "middleschoolers sharing their love on a bench", erring on the side of caution when dealing with teenagers is usually safer than the alternative. While you or your friends may not suddenly pass the reins to your hormones the moment regulation slackens, do you trust the entirety of the student body at your school to be so mature?

They can't actually do that outside of school hours. 8:00 AM-3:00 PM is the only time period you can be legally detained by a school.

Well, shit then. Time to call up a lawyer. Or at least report the principal to the superintendent.
Note that you should check your state laws on this before doing anything, just in case things are different where you are.

Bunch of kids got drunk and thought I was holding a party, while I was out having dinner with some friends. I come home wanting to entertain four people for a nice evening, and instead have to arrange transport for thirty kids who are too drunk to even stand up, in the majority of cases.

Yeah... apparently this isn't against the law. It's just standard procedure.

School is going to be nuts tomorrow, considering I missed two days before fall break being sick.

Two assignments I'm going to have to arrange to turn in late, several pages of notes I missed, my teachers don't let me off the hook homework-wise just because I was sick...

It's gonna suck, hard.

But day after tomorrow, Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson is going to be giving a presentation at the college my dad works at, so that'll be neat.

Just because something is standard procedure does not mean it isn't against the law.

Where are you?

I was 14 six years ago. None of that kind of thing happened at my normal New Jersey public middle school. Kids went straight from the entrance to the gym. No student is allowed to be in the halls, except for the bathrooms directly across the from one of the gym doors. There was a teacher stationed outside the bathroom, the fire doors to any of the other parts of the school were closed, preventing access, and basically everyone therefore would go to the gym and participate in the dance (or stand around on the sidelines).

That's it, there was never any student sex going on at the school dances. The idea was frankly unthinkable with the exception of the most... delinquent? of kids. If you're gonna have sex, don't do it in a school's public restroom, don't do it on a school bench, and don't do it in a significant room that teachers will assuredly check.

And getting smashed for a middle school dance? What kind of neighborhood did you live in?

I was 15 15 years ago, and I can say that back then, avoiding the school authorities was an art form. Even they locked down 90% of the doors in the school, had teachers patrolling the hallways, checking containers....but somehow we still managed to have fun. To be honest, the dance between the troublemakers and the school admins was generally more fun than the dances themselves.

After that though we learned if you really want to party, don't try to do it at school.

Long Island girls are skanks. Seriously, I don't really feel like taking insults from random people while I'm just taking a goddamn walk. Now go get run over by a car while running across traffic despite a crossing signal 50 feet the other goddamn way.

My computer keeps beeping at me because one of the fans isn't working-*BEEP* SHUT UP COMPUTER I DID NOT BUILD YOU JUST SO YOU COULD BITCH AT ME 24/7.
Somehow, I think that's the feeling God gets, if anything I read in the Old Testament is anything to go by. I find it to be a very humorous comparison.
