Ordinarily people get the message the first time around. Guess not.
Tah Gut, sorry for your suffering- but look at what you did as a result. You forced everyone in that school to bend to your conditions. You don't see something wrong there? I do.
Right now any parent can walk in with the most ridiculous demand and change school policies that have lasted for decades- all because we are afraid of civil action. It's silly. You don't like Mother's Day? Stay home that day. I feel people like you are slowly destroying my culture. Of course, since I am white and heterosexual that doesn't matter, but I am sickened by it nonetheless.
Sad crap happens every day- it is a fricken reality. To change the school holiday just so you won't be reminded of your loss is selfish beyond imagination. I am for understanding, believe it or not, but dammit, sometimes people push my patience too far.
I came from a broken home. I had an abusive step-father. I have no right to change the school holiday because the day would remind me of dear ol' dad. I learned to deal with it.
