Parents that choose the hijab for their 5yr old, are not liberal. So why should a liberal society appease it?

And no-one should force it on anyone else. That includes children. They're not your accessories. They're human beings.

Parents can decide if that's appropriate at home & schools can there. Same as with make-up, high heels, earrings etc.
