British Schoolwork Assignment: "Why I Converted to Islam"

I guess the days of kids having to write how they spent their summer vacation are gone. Now in Britain, at least at one school, the kids are supposed to write letters about why they have converted to Islam (even though they really haven't converted to Islam). That did not sit well with at least one parent, who is standing up to the school and refusing to let her child pen this letter.

No word on whether the woman has been dragged off to jail by Britain's politically-correct police.

Think that could never happen here? Right now, we are involved with the Ocean View School District in Huntington Beach, California, where a school teacher wrote an Islamic fight song for the kids in her class to sing that included this verse:

"And they (Muslims) really don't care if no Jews or Cs (Christians) believe..."

Presently, we are trying to get the district to pass a rule whereby a teacher has to get school approval before instituting their own teaching aids. It would be cumbersome, sure, but that's the price you (may have to) pay when you try to indoctrinate the kids.

Meanwhile, if teachers in Britain or the US are looking for some instructional aids about Islam for the kids, may I recommend Ayaan Hirsi Ali?
