A MAD woman in Wales, who just happens to be a HEAD TEACHER, has banned her 357 pupils from making Mother’s Day cards in case it upsets any children who don’t have a mother.
Helen Starkey claims that five per cent of children in her school are “separated from their birth mother or have either no contact or no regular contact with their motherâ€. I find that hard to believe, but will charitably put it down to the seeming inability of modern teachers to understand mathematics sufficiently to pass it on to their charges.
There is a simple point to make: while no-one wants to upset the alleged 17.85 motherless children, why should the other 95 per cent be denied a traditional Christian family activity?
