Anti-Muslim Sentiment Is Rising in the American Workplace

I feel that I accept all people, talk to anybody that talks back and has something positive to say. When it comes to special treatment of people in the work place I am not open or willing to accept that. Pray before and after work and on your lunch break, that should be sufficent. If your God is listening then you can even sneak in a quick prayer at your desk, you don't have to make a big fuss on your knees or what so ever if your God is next to you all the time. Thats another thought I had about special breaks for Muslims to pray.

Gay Student Teacher Reinstated By Oregon School District

I feel this teacher should have not said more than "No, I am not married" and leave the rest of his answer to a 4th grader to himself. I am a parent and would not have liked an answer like his to my 4th grade child. If he is gay fine, but you do not have to advertise this to 4th graders.

Anti-Muslim Sentiment Is Rising in the American Workplace

Prayer breaks give me a break. We don't need to give special treatment to muslims or any religion. When at work do your work. Go home and pray. Muslim and any other immigrants need to adopt to the american life. I did and so should they.

Could Abstinence-Until-Ready Programs Work?

As with everything you tell your teenager "no" about, as more they want to do it. This of course includes sex. I believe to just talk about openly with your teen about the issue, we parents can make a difference. Did all people of our generation (baby boomers) wait to have sex until marriage. Well most of us have not, so why do we think our children are different? Open communication is the key. Children should be able to come to their parents with any question or concern. And if you know they are sexually active then make sure they have the tools to prevent a unwanted pregnancy.
