The point is she had no RIGHT to do this.

It was NOT her business, and she had no authority to do so.

She is messing with OTHER PEOPLE'S decisions about their children.

"From reply #1
1) what public school is doing by promoting Santa Claus is promoting a form of religion; that 2) religion should not be promoted in public school; 3) a teacher should not be required to promote a religion in public school; and 4) the lesson plan requiring me to promote Santa Claus was imposing religion on me, not the other way around."

IF Santa was only a custom people would not be getting so upset.

And THAT is the point. If you have a problem with the lesson because of PERSONAL beliefs...you do not teach the lesson. You skip that part and deal with the consequences later. You have no RIGHT to alter the beliefs taught by a parent at that age. Period.

The same conservatives who are standing here applauding her would be the same ones screaming at her if she was in the class saying Jesus was a myth and that God did not exist. "That's not her RIGHT!"

Hypocrites.
