we should ban detention after school especially in the winter

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

in winter it will be really dark and kids might get scared,they might be kidnapped /robbed.instead i think detentions should be happening in launch time or break time because in winter if kids are late parents get worried as well
i think we should ban detentions everywhere after school in winter because of how dangerous it is for example my friend tanisha was really scared to go home after detention.
