Anyone has the right to say I dont want my child singing Christmas's carols or hanukkah songs. Sing them both and those who want their kid not to can say I dont want my kid involved in that activity.

Im not religious at all.. but I believe in having an open mind and respecting other peoples beliefs.. I would have no problem singing Rudolph as easy as singing.. um.. I dunno any hanukah songs... I don't think it hurts anything.. And if I had kids I would want them to be open minded also...
But I can understand there are those out there that think other religions or whoever doesn't believe what they believe are gonna burn and may be afraid of it...

I feel the same way! I wanted my kid to be open minded about alot of things. Some people feel different. They have that right. They have the right pull their kid out of class's or actvities the feel is wrong. I not a church goer but do beleive in god. I would never push my religous beleifs on anyone and exspect the same in return. But we both know how that goes..grumble

It just cracks me up when I hear things like they teach sex ed, birth control or the most popular of all in this last election, teach my kid that being gay is ok. You have the right to say what your child participates in school. You have the right to say no. All you have to do is get involved in whats being taught at your school. I like having to sign those permission slips....


Why should she say no? Why should her child not participate? It's a Public school.. If they can involve Christmas for the ones who celebrate it.. Why not Hanukah?
I think your misunderstanding me. I agree...


I guess I did... I re-read it.. sorry about that..
**I took the 'right to say no' as in she should just not participate in the singing...

I think we should throw shoes at anyone who doesnt like rudoplph
