Kevin Taylor and his girlfriend were allowed to return to their classes. According to Taylor, he gave his girlfriend a simple hug in between classes at St. Martin De Porres High School in Waukegan. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2012/may/teens-hugging.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 370px; " /> Taylor said, &ldquo;I would hold her waist&hellip; or sometimes my hands were just resting on her shoulders.&rdquo; Taylor claimed it was a hug that only lasted a couple of seconds, but school offiicals said that&rsquo;s not what their students should be learning or doing at school. The school&rsquo;s president told Fox Chicago News that the school has a safe and healthy environment for students to learn and it wants to keep it that way. Taylor, a junior, admitted that he and his freshman girlfriend were warned &ndash;in writing&mdash;about &ldquo;multiple displays of affection&rdquo;&mdash;including &ldquo;kissing&rdquo; and &ldquo;full frontal hugs&rdquo;. But he said the catholic school&rsquo;s &ldquo;PDA&rdquo; policy is outdated. The school&rsquo;s handbook, that each student is given, states that St. Martin, among other things, will &ldquo;not&rdquo; tolerate verbal abuse, inappropriate displays of affection and distasteful language. Taylor and his mother said &ldquo;PDA&rdquo; should be defined.
