I am sure 99.9% of regular folks who read this article will think what a load of bollocks.

and i think the same

[Ninastar]

Wtf? She was asking to do something nice! That's totally stupid. Was the family a different religion or something?

[\PJ/]

Id tap that.

She was Forcing God onto that Ill Child.

They are a Normal Family without any need for a un real God
Fact.

[Ninastar]

I doubt she tried to force it.

[arista]

I doubt she tried to force it.


Of Course You would think that.


Stop using that Fable Bible on Folks.


There Is No God.

[WOMBAI]

I think the mother overreacted. There really was no need to make a complaint! She sounds a bit of a drama queen.

[BB_Eye]

To be honest, that family sound like the real bullies.

[WOMBAI]

To be honest, that family sound like the real bullies.

Think you might be right! If she felt offended - she just needed to say so to the teacher concerned. Making an official complaint - that subsequently lost her her job - was unnecessary and, in my book, nasty!

methinks he doth protest too much

The mother could have just said "No, we're not religous but thank you anyway"

I'm not religous but I would see it as someone being caring and nice if they offered to pray for me in a situation like that.

"Mrs Jones, who taught children not well enough to attend school, said that after she raised the topic of prayer during a visit to a 12-year-old's house, the girl's mother lodged a complaint."

Do be ridiculous, all they had to say was no thanks to her, she was just trying to be nice, get a grip!

[bananarama]

I am not religious and can't stand children being brainwashed with it.........However from what I understand all she wanted to do was say a prayer........That in its self I would say is not forcing a belief on one just expressing ones own belief.......



The parents I think have well and truly overeacted.......She ment no harm quite the opposite........A little bit of common sense would have been more appropriate from all sides........

Didn't read the whole article but the scummy family should die. Pack of *****.

You get a Grip
that Fool was Sacked.

Arista, sometimes I think you really need to open up your mind a little bit. Just because you believe there is no God, does not mean others are not allowed to believe there is. You say "Fake God" as if it is fact, and it just makes you seem quite ignorant to other peoples beliefs. I'm not a big Christian.. I don't go to Church every Sunday or pray every night.. but I do follow the faith of Christianity and believe there is a God, so I think of myself as a Chirstian, and find your comments quite offensive sometimes. You really need to open your mind to different faiths of the world.

How is asking if she will say a prayer "ramming it down anyones throat"????

Simple - That Prayer is a Insult to Folks
with No God.


Keep it Private
or Get SACKED.

Agreed.
There should be some laws brought in to stop this religious forcing behaviour so when people like her are sacked there is nothing to cry victim about.

I'm not religious - but the woman was not forcing anything. She was just doing what she genuinely believed would help! Her intentions are what count!

Poor woman! She was only trying to be helpful!

That is Not Help
for the Billions of us that have no God.

Do Not Insult people with a Fake Prayer.





Sign Of The Times.

Wrong, the black man is god.

[Skeptic-i]

I'm not religious - but the woman was not forcing anything. She was just doing what she genuinely believed would help! Her intentions are what count!

Here's what the families mother had to say:

"Mrs Jones was employed to teach maths but used every opportunity to discuss religion, despite the fact I made it clear we were a non-religious family and didn’t want to talk about these issues in this way. On one occasion she asked my daughter to pray with her. My daughter was distressed by this behaviour."

The family made it clear that they were not religious and requested that she didn't discuss religion. Obviously, the Christian woman didn't respect the families request; so continued to push her views. Also, her employer had previously asked her not to proselytise - but she continued to do so regardless. She wasn't respecting her employer's wishes also.

At the end of the day, this woman was employed to teach math. She wasn't employed to push her religious agenda - including her self-serving behaviour - on vulnerable children. I'm glad she was fired.

[WOMBAI]

Where did you get that information from ? Need a reliable source!

If true, it does put another slant on the situation. If the teacher repeatedly did it, after being asked not to, then that was out of order and she would of brought it on herself.

[arista]

Yes she had to be Sacked
