UK: Teachers Deny Ten-Year-Old Boy Water On Hottest Day Of The Year To Avoid Upsetting Muslims Observing Ramadan…




Just when you think things can’t any more ridiculous in the UK.

Via Daily Mail:


An angry mother has accused a primary school of denying her child water on one of the hottest days of the year for fear of upsetting pupils observing Ramadan.

Kora Blagden, 32, claimed a teacher at her son Luke’s school refused to let the 10-year old drink from his water bottle because it was unfair to fasting classmates.

Many pupils at Charles Dickens Primary School, Portsmouth, Hampshire, are fasting during Ramadan, which means they refrain from taking food or water between sunrise and sunset for around 30 days, depending on the moon.

Mother-of-four Kora said: ‘Just before bedtime me and my sons Luke, ten, and Alfie, eight, were talking about Ramadan as we had seen it on the news.

‘Luke said to me he was told he wasn’t allowed to drink in class by his teacher.

‘The reason being, a child who is fasting had a headache and the teacher said it would be unfair if the other children drank in front of the pupil.

If the child wasn't Muslim he should have been able drink his water. Tolerance is a two way street. Does this mean that a Muslim child should eat ham on Eastern since it is a tradition for Christians?

I looked up this school. Apparently, they have this thing called "air conditioning".

The child should have been able to have water regardless of his religion. If Muslim or Jewish people, including children, want to eat ham or pork or bacon or even lard, they can and they may, but they are also free to choose to refrain from doing so.
