Once Again, Is It Education Or Child Abuse?

9-Year-Old Suspended For Saying ‘Merry Christmas’ To Teacher

Are you kidding me?  Listen to this puzzlewit teacher:

"Reporters spoke with Mr. Horner as he was leaving from school on Tuesday. “I warned the children not to bring religion into my classroom,” Horner said. “Maybe he’ll [Tim] listen to adults next time.”

From the school's website:

We pledge open and frequent communication between school and home and to establish a relationship of trust and respect. We encourage active parent participation in their own children's education, in their children's classroom and in school-wide curricular, extracurricular and administrative activities. Argonne's Caring School Community Program provides us with a school-wide community building and discipline program with common goals and a common language.

The irony burns a little, doesn't it?
