Talk:Volunteer Discipline Policy
Revision as of 17:44, 26 January 2006 by Halfasspete (talk | contribs)
amendment for proposal
Note: this is not yet a formal proposal. Please adjust as you see fit.
In Jan. '06, there is a hot discussion about the role of children at Free Geek. This proposal is NOT intended as a general solution to that situation. Rather it is intended to clarify a small piece of existing policy. I think that might contribute to better communication, and therefore be a small piece of a solution.
So, the proposal is that the Volunteer Discipline Policy be amended to explicitly state the following:
- Children under 16 should be listed among the categories of volunteers.
- Children at Free Geek are bound by the same policy as other volunteers.
- The proper avenue for addressing significant concerns with a child is via the parent (or responsible person.)
- It should link to the Under 16 Policy, which complements this policy.
