Liz Klein, the principal of Osbourne Primary School in Mt. Martha, Vic., Australia, had a problem with "anti-social behavior" at her school, so she fixed it -- by banning socializing.

Large groups of students were, according to her, "entertaining themselves at other kids' expense," so her new rule prohibits students from being in groups of more than three.
