Pupils will be banned from wearing abayas, loose-fitting full-length robes worn by some Muslim women, in France’s state-run schools, the education minister has said.
The rule will be applied as soon as the new school year starts on 4 September.
France has a strict ban on religious signs in state schools and government buildings, arguing that they violate secular laws.
Wearing a headscarf has been banned since 2004 in state-run schools.
Try that when you’re 10 👍
The trick when you are 10 is to memorize and record every single detail of it. Which adult did what on what day and which did nothing to stop it.
That way when you get older you can be crystal clear why you disowned the ones that did nothing and go after the ones that actively harmed you.
The religious deserve as much forgiveness as they have shown everyone else.
Ok… It doesn’t allow you to quit the community while you’re young though…
And? I have made it clear that I fucking hate religion. That doesn’t mean raising a kid with religion in of itself rises to the level of abuse. The depressing thing is the people who generally raise a child are the people who made the child. And we can’t legislate being a good parent we can only legislate against being an abusive one.
I would worry all that much. Those kids will grow up and see Islam and Christianity for the disgusting filth it is and leave.
I think you’re just not following the discussion…
