Whereas I agree that anyone visiting a mosque or any other Religious building should respect the particular dress code.

What I don't agree with that these pupils were forced to attend or be marked as a truant, as regards paying for the privilege that takes the biscuit. If there is a charge then the visit should be voluntary.

What I would like to know, was the trip the mind child of the Headmaster or not?

at 14 my daughter was over on the red rec every night after school probably trying to blag cig and a can of cider off her older brother : (((
I think I agree with susie. I really think the woman is over-reacting. The girl is not being asked to 'dress like a muslim', but merely to have the good manners to follow a dress code. I take it her mother would ask her to dress respectfully for mass? Where's the problem?

The charge was, as the letter states, voluntary, and parents were free not to give permission for their kids to go. So it goes down as unauthorised absence - so what? Unless the girl is a regular truant then it's hardly going to stand up in court.

Pity the child from one school who went on a visit to a mosque only to realise, when they got there, that she had forgotten to take her scarf. Only thing was, her father was the Imam!
I think I thought you could pregnant froma toilet seat when I was Mollys age..lol
jj but the catholic priests don't do it legally, and eventually get caught and in trouble.
But hang on guys ...

Molly seems to be saying ...

"When I visit the territory of a different religion, I should not be forced to adopt their dress code ... I should be allowed to keep my own"

Well ... that is precisely what the Muslims themselves say !
I wouldn't have to follow any religions STRICT dress codes as i don't intend to enter any of their buildings.

Some years ago while in Hawaii we visited the polynesian cultural centre,a vast area with all the cultures of the south pacific,it was a tiresome day and at the end of it was a theatrical show,before that started we had some time on our hands so we jumped on a bus which said mystery tour,all free and part of the tour,when we got to where we was going it pulled up outside this magnificent mormon temple in beautiful grounds,everyone on the bus went inside the temple except me I refused to do so on principal because of their way of thinking.Should be everyones choice wether they enter or not.
yeah jj and they shouldn't force other people to visit their churches (well the school is) then force them to dress diferently.
so why are you studying about the three you mentioned Molly
i you fell in love with someone who attended a mosque Molly you may have to. Or will you be going through life choosing not to falkl in love with anyone who looks like they may attend a mosque?
i think some of you are being very hard on molly, why should they force the kids to go
"What makes you think i'm not a 16 year old girl?"

Why's that, Molly?.....are you perhaps worried that you may have come over to be just a little too simple and at the same time awkward in an adult way?.......and that more than one of us has noticed?
red helen, i haven't read the qu'ran but the teacher told us it, it was in the text book and i've seen documentaries that include it, sometihng along the lines of men have the right to have sex at least three times a week, even if the woman doesnt agree' which is rape.
