I myself wear a wedding ring, watch, and an earring. Where do you draw
the line. Only for safety sake, I hope. If you don't want any hanging
jewelry, there goes the neckerchief, wood badge beads, JLT claw, or other
things like that. Besides, it's suppose to be boy run. And if one of his
parents wrote it, I'd call it using your recourses.
Sounds to me like a power hungry adult with not enough to do.

Just my humble opinion.
