Wow! Look at all the bile and venom this woman's actions have brought out, all because she told children about the MYTH of Santa Claus.

She's "scum", a "b***h", and *gasp!* a "liberal"! Some of these same folks, when confronted with the hypothetical you offered about abortion would applaud a substitute teacher for refusing to teach that abortion is okay, according to the "lesson plan" but Santa, whoa! That "b***h" should have stuck with the lesson plan because it's okay to teach children about a jolly fat guy in a red suit who "sees you when you're sleeping, knows when you're awake, knows when you've been bad or good so be good for goodness' sake" who delivers whatever they want to them, all in one night!

She really touched a sacred cow, this time, eh? She better not be teaching near Easter and tell the truth about that character or the fur is REALLY going to fly!

She shouldn't be teaching in a public school She should be teaching in a private religious school.

I suggest the "Holy Church Of Uptight Bitties".

I would have lauded her if she would have refused to "teach" the "lesson plan". She didn't. She taught the exact opposite.

That's what we're all upset about.

Amen Sister!

The point is she had no RIGHT to do this.

It was NOT her business, and she had no authority to do so.

She is messing with OTHER PEOPLE'S decisions about their children.

I have not seen one post which infers that the woman would have been wrong to NOT teach the lesson at all. She could have done something else. Instead, she forced herself in between children and parents and what they believe.

Exactly, lots of howling and gnashing of teeth going on here.
