I know an absolute TONNE of crunchy vegan mummies (White ones ) who would absolutely lose their **** about a school using manual labour as punishment without parental consent.

There is absolutely nothing in this story - whatsoever - to suggest that the mothers anger is in any way based on cultural beliefs and even less evidence that it is in any way sexist.

It was a nice way of avoiding answering my original question, I asked you a hypothetical question as to if it came to light that several other parents objected, all of the same culture, what your views on that would be. Would you not see an agenda.

If there is an agenda it would not be so unreasonable to suggest that the fact that it was A boy and not a girl at the centre of her grievance may have had something to do with her OTT reaction. If so that would be sexist.

Btw this may potentially have something to do with culture, but where does race come into it. Race and culture are not mutually exclusive. It just sounds like another excuse to undermine my opinions by calling me racist. Bored with it now.
