Re: Racial Remarks at School

I certainly do not need the likes of you praying for me. For your
information I am an ordained minister, so I will do the praying for
myself thank you. Read your post lady....If the teacher said she
would apologize and send a letter stating the same, then why would
you be going to talk with the head teacher to find out if there was
such a child that was afraid of Asian people if not for some other
reason? If you wanted to speak with the head teacher and ask a
question it should be when will the apology and letter come, not to
find out if there really is such a child.
