I wish I was somewhere they banned stuff like that. It would bring me great delight to carry on using them. Anyway it is Impossible to "ban words". You can put them on a list and there can be consequences for saying them but you cannot "ban" them.
good friend of mine taught at Moulescombe. She definitely held non loser sports days. I don't think it does the kids harm particularly it's just a bit pandering.
This. They are far more likely to complain that Chelsea didn't get to do her solo hairbrush rendition of Rhiana's latest chart topper than whether hey made the first team or got their piece of "art" in the end of term showcase.

I was always of the impression sports days were an inclusive event, giving the kids who were too Joey to get into a sports team a chance to lose in front of the whole school and their parents?
As an aside, most young adults I meet are pretty thick skinned, go getting whizz bangers.
What people, adults and younglings alike must understand is the difference between unFAIR and unJUST.
Unfair must be lived with, accepted and understood in terms of we can't always get what we want but the wheel comes back round and what I lose on the roundabout I'll make up for on the swing...
Certainly there were/ are primary schools in Brighton that have no loser sports days. Shouldn't be a problem too much longer though as they have flogged off all the playing fields to build subterranean megacities for Islamic Martians and turned the five-a-side court into a shariah law...
Surely it comes form the comparison to a snowflake and that each one is delicate and unique and beautiful and must be handled with extreme care, marvelled at as it flutters through life feeling adored?
