If it were not so loaded with sexual connotations, cld be appropriate for a primary school. Nothing wrong with a scarf in itself unless hot.

Sexual connotations for a 5 year old? Are you really saying that? Has it occured to you that its a worn as a religious symbol?

But of what? Modesty as a religious virtue. Gender-specific modesty codes don't get better because they're religious.

If something is of my faith I uphold it regardless of liberal sensitivities. Where is your 'tolerance' or as always Islam is the exception?

And I defend your right to do so. Wear a hijab if you wish. Don't expect schools to help you enforce this on primary school children.

There is no enforcement. If parents wish to make the choice then the're free to do so. Only reason this is a story is because it's Muslims.

Its not the parents who are forced to put little girls in hijabs, no. It's the little girls who have to dress as their parents tell them.

In the same way you'd like your children to be 'Liberals' others want them distinctly 'Muslim' also. Please understand this and move on.

Common! That's a cop out. You indoctrinate her all her life but object at her wearing a short declaring what you've led her to believe!

I taught my child all 6 major religions. She tried on Christianity, Judaism & Hinduism before becoming an atheist.
