Trials and tribulations of a school Mum
Yesterday Me Beloved and I had a heated discussion with our Miss 9's
teacher over her changing two words of a poem our girl was to read as
part of the ANZAC ceremony.
Our argument was that A: it is copyright protected so what right did she have to change it. B: she was asking or daughter to also breach copyright and therefore teaching her to have no respect for other people's work and the law.
I will leave out the argument over religion because this was never about that, although it did offend me that it is ok to not mention God so as not to offend non Christians but Christians are ok to offend.
No one was ever going to win this one.
