Parents would be well-served to yank their kids out of school that day and take them to the play themselves. It would be really priceless if that was one of the days headcount was taken to apportion funds.

“very narrow focus on Santa Claus”?
I didn’t get that from seeing the original version.

Screw 'em. Them shoving this PC crap down my throat is making me less tolerant toward everybody toward whom I'm expected to be PC.
It's having the opposite effect.

IF Santa Claus was teaching the little girl how to put a condom on a banana, though, or that believing in God is like believing in, well,....Santa,...., then that would be totally acceptable and classes would be mandated to see it (with no opt-out).

I don’t know the answer to this so I’m just asking — is it possible that a Jewish family objected or even a Christian family that doesn’t do the Santa thing at Christmas? Narrow docus on Santa = no focus on the birth of Jesus?

Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to. Don't you see? It's not just Kris that's on trial, it's everything he stands for. It's kindness and joy and love and all the other intangibles. < /Fred Gailey>

Oddly enough, this guy picked the most banal and secular of the classic Christmas movies as the basis for taking this stand.

“The people who complained were concerned about the very narrow focus on Santa Claus,” French said yesterday
It's too bad that some people's spines have the consistency of gruel. How sad that they cave so easily.

I get the impression that the complaints came from Christians, not from PC types. Of course, the article is not specific.

“If you don’t want to send your child, don’t send your child, but don’t ruin it for the rest,” said one parent who requested anonymity."That's what I thought. Those who weren't allowed to go could be placed elsewhere in the school - gym, library, etc.

Is there anything that people don't complain of? The hypersensitivity of our country is stunning.
