Halloween Is Being Stripped From Your Children Because Its Offensive According to recent reports, Halloween has just been banned from schools in Milford, Connecticut. Why? They town doesnt want to offend children who dont celebrate the holiday. A letter was sent home to parents in the district, claiming that this years Halloween parades have been called off due to numerous incidents of children being excluded from activities due to religion, cultural beliefs, etc. But it doesnt stop there. Students will no longer be able to wear their costumes to class, all Halloween-related activities have been stripped from the curriculum, and there will be no candy handed out. Milford Public Schools do have many children from diverse beliefs, cultures and religions, Jim Richetelli, chief operations officer for Milford schools told reporters. The goal is for all children to feel comfortable and definitely not alienated when they come to school. Of course, one can conclude that this has something to do with Halloween being discouraged by Islam, and the fact that that Muslim children cannot dress up in costumes. What do you think? Is this absolutely ridiculous?
