Even the Grinch would not be this mean.
A sourpuss teacher in Rockland County ruined Christmas for a class full of second-graders this week, when she told them that there is no Santa Claus during a lesson about the North Pole.
The evil educator even told the youngsters - mostly 7- and 8-year-olds - that the presents under their trees were put out by their parents, and not St. Nick.
The stunning Scrooge-like behavior has caused a blizzard of outrage at the quiet George W. Miller Elementary School in Nanuet, where angry parents would like to see the teacher roasted like a chestnut over an open fire.
...
school officials would not discuss the Christmas incident or say if the teacher would face any discipline

I can hear the b**** now, “The government is your Santa Claus”. Typical commie bovine scatology. Commies have been pedaling this bull**** for years.

The teacher, protected under union rights, will probably sue the parents for making terroristic threats about arson.
Agreed. I think Christmas is about Jesus Christ, not Santa Claus. That having been said, I think parents are free to teach their children whatever they want, but I disagree with teaching children that there is a Santa Claus. If you don’t want someone telling a kid something contrary to what you want them to be taught, don’t ship them to a government school/indoctrination camp and abdicate an important portion of your parental responsibility.
In any event, I have no problem with a teacher telling children that Santa Claus doesn’t exist. He doesn’t. So why make a big deal out of someone telling the truth, rather than perpetuate an Anti-Christian lie? I dunno, but I’m sure someone will flame about it.
THIS is an example of what “educators” do....talk/teach about things they have NO Responsibility for doing....I don’t care how YOU feel about it...what the heck is a teacher doing even talking about it....stick to the Reading, Writing and Arithmetic.

Absolutely. The sooner we can kill the imagination, dreams and innocence in our children, the better off they will be.
And by golly, it’s the unionized state teachers that get paid to tell our kids what to believe and not to believe. Those damn parents have no business in interfering with the proper upbringing of our children.
Bottom line... when the children of today grow up, they will quickly find out how much their lives suck, so the sooner we can destroy their childish minds, the sooner they can join with those that hate the world.

Yep. But, in all honesty, I feel the same about believing and teaching about Magic Underwear or the Holly Ghost...Told you, I am a Grinch...
Sorry, but I don’t know what either of those are, but it doesn’t sound like either are something to be taught in school.
And what's with putting my subscription date at the top of your post. Do you have a point? If you have anything to say to me, say it or just shut up.
Maybe so, but it’s not your place or hers to make decision for a family. I have a 26 year old Marine when he gets to come home for Christmas he still writes a letter to Santa, leaves cookies & milk and hides the baby Jesus to lay in the manger on Christmas morning. He knows Santa isn’t real (he was a late bloomer and I think he was 8 before we told him and even then he was pissed at us) but he loves his traditions. Damned if Santa doesn’t write him back. I put them in hour family scrapbook along with the pictures for that year.
He’s a very grounded individual and always has been. It hurt no one for him to believe in Santa longer than your kids or anyone else’s did. We simply refused to let him move through childhood at an unnatural pace. Right before he and his best friend enlisted they used to go out running around the property with swords being a live action video game. I supposed that’s wrong too. I simply don’t see the point of allowing children (or adults) to continue a tradition they enjoy.

Yes you are a grinch. Screw around with my kid and you’ll be a sorry Grinch.
Obama should have a televised statement just prior to Christmas Eve, have all the parents bring their kids to the TV and inform them all, Santa is not real, tell um it's just a myth created by evil white people.
So what other American traditions do you think the govt should abolish? Since you seem to believe the govt gets to decide which traditions people follow.
