Bingo, it would be interesting to get some unvarnished opinions from people who know her well. I can tell you in my own experience with people I grew up with who went on to teach, many were let us say, odd growing up.

Here's one display from the shrine in Attleboro.

That’s why the parents should have been contacted. It seems like anything beyond that was too much.

This is a simple case of liberals projecting their belief system onto this boy

Liberals believe having a religion based on a faith in God is a mental disorder in need of fixing

She probably actually thinks she was helping the kid

A Christian child identifying with Christ's suffering on the cross in a drawing sounds rather normal and healthy to me.

Agree. But is that what his name instead of Jesus's meant?

Who cares? He is 8 years old. Maybe he was just signing his art work. I just looked at a pic of the drawing on WND and I don't see his name anywhere on it. Just the letter "J" on the sign above Jesus' head.

“They are rebelling against God” I’m a tad more pessimistic

They are rebelling against God because they hate all that He offers.

All those “Tho shall nots” must bug the schoolies to no end....

The family needs to sue.

I first heard of this when it came on the radio here in Boston, and I believe the kid has been taken out of the school.

As for the kid putting his name on the cross, I don't know, I didn't see it as some big thing--he's eight, he's a special needs kid, and it was his drawing. I haven't heard that the kid said he did that because he's crying out because of abuse or something.

BTW, I am an atheist and I work with abused kids, and the reactions to this by the school creep me out. I suspect someone making a similar illustration of Mohammed being victimized by the USA...well, I don't have to continue, do I?

Good idea. Bring deprivation of civil liberties lawsuit against this rag and the school district.

Sue the bastards

The civil rights of this child and his parents have been violated by everyone involved at the school; teachers, administrators, principals and the superintendent. All should be sued and prosecuted for civil rights violations. If some or all of them end up in a federal prison, maybe this B.S. would stop. Also, the school/town should be sued.

“This is one of those ‘How is this possible?’ scenarios,” she said.

Not even close. It’s easily explained. The teacher is a Leftist, atheist a-hole, and has NO business setting foot in a classroom - ANY classroom.

There’s your explanation, and I didn’t even break a sweat.

I totally agree! They hate that they can’t be God. Sounds a lot like Lucifer’s problem.

It's alright. Obama will invite them all for a beer at the White House!
