No one is teaching third graders anything about those things nor is there any basis for an allegation that it would be "a-ok" if they were. Your post implying that they are being taught those things and anyone approves does not reflect well on you.
I think they may have been referring to Jennings in the WH that wants to do these things.
her mother approved of it, just because you hate religion does not mean all have to. the book did not violate school policy or any law was being read on her own during free time.
You know me? Tamer books than that have been banned from school libraries....why allow a child to have access to a book that contains so much sex and violence? I doubt the kid could even read it....., but it shouldn't be on school grounds...they have books there to read yanno?
No, child. I ask because I've actually read the Bible and studied the Bible and would NEVER let that book get in the the hands of a 7 year old without proper guidance.
Let's have an adult conversation without jumping to false conclusions. Now, answer the question or move along.
We don't know, it may of been a version of the bible written for children....of course what trouble me is the mother has said she may speak with a lawyer.....good grief does every thing have to turn into how much $$$$$ can I get from a law suit??? Mother lost all credibility with me when I read that

I know your words so that is how I know you. This child is not your child for you to judge what her mother is doing. why allow a child to read the bible? becasue children have been reading the bible for a very long time.

Then I know you too! I can state my opinion on the matter, and if the child isn't attending Xtian school....then she should keep her worshipping materials at home. Children may read versions of the Bible, more like cartoony stories about Noah, and Adam and Eve....but I've never met a child who wanted to read the Bible if left to their own decision (kids wouldn't know a thing about religion at all if not for their parents or guardians, they aren't born religious)..who can even understand WTH they're talking about in there?

She is not your child. She did not violate the law or district policy or school rules. What you do with your child is your business and my opinion on your child is as worthless as your opinion is to this mother.
