Thread Name: BS: Happy Holiday?
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Holiday?
Same here in Canada. Christmas is the holiday that dare not speak its' name. At my daughters primary school they had a winter concert..every culture was represented..except that of the vast majority of kids. Christmas songs, carols or any mention of the C word was strictly forbidden. The school administration got a lot of complaints and replied that it did not wish to give offence...except to the 90% of the students who celebrate christmas. Our Family will not attend such school events in future. I am very tired of being told that my religion and culture are offensive.
