The big debate here at the moment is the "hijab"(headscarf) some schools are not allowing Muslim girls to wear them....I find this insulting and outragious, what is your view?

• I understand what your saying my friend, but the children should not suffer for the behaviour of the parents, they are taught these things at home. I agree that anyone entering another country should respect the laws and the ways of that country, absolutely!! but at the same time being allowed to remain in their beliefs without affecting other beliefs and ways, I dont think closing the baths for one day will hurt anyone, here the Muslim children in the schools are simply offered a different menu to the other children.

• I watched a documentory not so long ago where Muslim children at kindergarten were being asked what to do with Infidels and they were all screaming (not knowing what they were saying) kill the Infidels. We are these Infidels. Do you agree the women have to be coberred from head to foot so no other man but the husband can see them while the husband is allowed to travel the World and have sex whereverand whenever he wants. I was on a cruise, everybody was happy. One woman, covered from head to toe in black with just enough room to see out of, had to follow her man to eat and was from that time on, locked into her cabin, while he roamed the ship enjoying himself.

• Yeah! it is wrong in our eyes,but it is how they live, I do know in some Muslim countries they are trying to change things. Many women die during child birth because the man will not allow his wife to see a doctor in the fear it is a man, so they bleed to death, they are now training many young girls in midwifery and at the same time educating women to take their health in their own hands.

• No, that is true, but we do accomodate the people, with people comes belief and ways....I understand your anger as I feel the pressure first hand, believe me, I have been told to go home here, and my own land wont let me in, it is not the religion that is at fault, it is how we use the religion, if I had been Muslim then I would have a house in my Country now, but because I am a British citizen I need a lot of money first to live before I get help.

• Do you think I have not!!! I have two children and need somewhere to live, because I speak German they are being stupid, I should have gone in and spoken English with "I dont understand" comment, might have helped!!!I cry in the night because I feel so helpless, you have no idea how it is to be the strong one for your children, yet being crushed inside, you tell me about being stepped on, I have been walked over most of my life....but I still hold my respect for others.

• Moonchild! I respect and sympathise with you at what you say has been a long and hard road. If you have any idea's on how we at AB could help your cause, please let us know. As far as the Muslims are concerned. Who in his right mind would let his Daughter be Circuncised so as to feel no pleasure in sex and to put her in danger of death because she cannot urinate properly

• Bazza here. To carry on. These girls die an agonising death due to the surgery their parents insist they have. This abomination is only done so the male knows his wife will be true to him. For Gods sake, we are all humans (supposeably).

• I completely agree with you bazza, their ways can be so cruel to us, but that doesn`t mean that we should go picking on tiny details like a headscarf, we will never stop the ways and beiefs of others but we can show are pride of who we are in our understanding of some things.

• This is not a case of mode but a case of"religion", the girls do it because they are made to do, in islamic countries girls would be openly tortured for not wearing one, it is a disgrace to let the children suffer for something they cannot stop.

• We are not an Islamic country though.
  My child is forbidden to pray in school, why should others get religious preference.
