And birthday cards are out of the question, since, for 99% of the kids, they will have a different birthday than the kid being honored.

To the “it can’t happen here” crowd.

I don’t care.

If the intent is there, it must be exposed so that we can make sure “it can’t happen here”.

There are those in Congress who intend to make America completely socialist. The intent is there, and we can’t just shrug it off because it’s unlikely to be implemented.

So I guess they need to make a generic “parents day”, and get rid of both fathers and mothers day. What’s next? No Christmas? Oh yeah, they’re already getting rid of that too. :(

If the kids were making the cards during a 'free' art time (where kids are allowed to draw whatever they want), then the school has no business forbidding them from doing so. I can see the school not setting aside time specifically to make fathers day cards, although their reasoning is a bit silly.

At least the school (so far) can't stop the kids from making dad a card at home.

And just today the MSN.com headline happens to be:

“HOW TO LEAVE YOUR HUSBAND”,

with a secondary headline of

“Plus: 10 STEPS TO A MONEY-SMART DIVORCE”.

Why are they making “Father’s Day Cards” in school in the first place??

Will(did) they also ban mother’s day cards under the same reasoning?

The Scolding Socialist Schoolmarms and Lesbo-Feminist Liberal Lefties and the Harping Homosexualist He-males have well-and-truly taken over.

Wanna know what that’s like? For the last nine years Helen Clark’s Labor party have governed New Zealand, with dumb-assical outcomes similar to this one from Scotland becoming the Norm.

I fear that if Obama becomes your next President, this is the nature of the “hope and change” that he will bring to your once-Great Nation. It will well-nigh ruin you.

This year we in New Zealand get to throw off they tyranny of the Helen Clark Labor government — if enough of us get our act together. It is by no means a certain thing.

Once the Do-Gooders are in, it is like excising a fast-spreading cancer to get them out.

Fear this!

What about banning Mother’s day cards, too, since some children’s mothers may have died or gone missing? What about children who have lost both parents to death and are being raised by cruel and abusive aunts and uncles?

Oh, wait. That was Harry Potter.

Seems they got it all backwards.

They have a problem of too many single parent households — the solution is to encourage Father’s Day.

If they think this generation is difficult to teach just wait until society collapses completely — we are getting very close.

No doubt any more. Thinking like a leftist means that one has lost one’s mind.

I remember feeling really bad for friends of my nephew during the ‘Mother’s Day’ making of cards, crepe paper corsages etc. Their mom walked out and left them, they never see her. The youngest was confused as to when he was supposed to give it to her and cried in class. When my oldest was in kindergarten, one of his friends told me during the Mother’s Day ‘tea’ that he was glad they got out of school before Father’s Day, since his dad never came to see him anymore. He just said if he made a card, it would make him feel bad since he didn’t know how to give it to his dad.
