Well, you’re asking a lot of a kindergartener with that argument. How about, “that’s not the best way to express ourselves”? It’s okay to be respectful, it costs nothing.

First, Christianity is not the only sect to feel this way. Second, OP said the child/family are not religious. So why would the child use religious language as a substitute for expressing shock or disbelief? Your argument is for adults, the post was about Kindergartners. And again, being respectful, a lost art I know, it costs nothing to respect someone else’s views. Respect is not an argument, and the child will be better adjusted for life for understanding this. Go ahead, the floor is yours for the last word:

Jew hell? You’re a fucking idiot, thanks for “nexting” yourself. 😂

Punish… Did you even read the OP? No one was punished, the teacher told the Kindergarten student to not say that word. Since this is all third hand through a Kindergarten student we should assume the adult was actually appropriate and the child’s version of the story is possibly misconstrued.

No one is pushing religion, a point you still don’t fucking grasp. How about more plain English since you’re such a fucking moron. Any kid shouldn’t say “oh my god” every time they are shocked; it’s fake drama, I heard it from my parents bullshit. They are 5, they aren’t arguing about the existence of god. No Kindergarten student says OMG because they are atheists you fucking twit. It’s them repeating their parents. And if the teacher asked them to stop, respect the teacher. They aren’t the babysitter for your kid, it’s their professional work environment. They are not a servant to the public for $50k a year without a voice into their own classroom. If a kid was saying really anti Jewish things would the teacher have to suspend their own beliefs of what a religion-free classroom environment should be? If you are arguing the black and white interpretation of the law, then go ahead and say more stupid stuff. Your argument is based on theory, not reality. Remember, at the end of the day they are there to learn the ABCs, and how to be socially and emotionally adjusted.

Dude, chill the fuck out. You already lost the argument, just accept it. Throwing a temper tantrum isn’t going to change that.

I know you are going to try very hard to get the last word in, but it changes nothing. The teacher is absolutely trying to force her religion on people who do not want to partake, and it’s absolutely not a problem for someone to say “oh my god” like you keep trying to imply.

You are clearly on the wrong side of this one, no amount of arguing or freaking out is going to change that. Grow up.

I’m not angry or defensive. You’re changing the discussion to a constitutional/liberty argument and my point is that the kindergarten teacher didn’t even say it offended her own beliefs. And the teacher’s religious beliefs have never even come into the thread. The teacher can ask any kid to stop saying anything that is disruptive. Five year olds don’t get to decide what is or isn’t disruptive to the classroom. You are clearly going to be that asshole parent that kindergarten teachers complain to their spouse and friends about.

Do you know what's funny?

They (or someone else) reported your post, but in doing so, made it clear I needed to remove the one above it.

Opinion:

Religion should NOT be taught in school at all, in my opinion. Separation from church and state should mean freedom of religion, but also freedom from religion. You can have your "faith" outside of my tax dollars.

Not an opinion:

Jew hell? Really? Do I need to explain why that can be offensive? Really?

> I'm Jewish. It was a joke because we don't have that.

OK. Fair point. -- But it was also a phrased once used to attack people in Israel and followers of the Jewish faith. It was used to argue that jews had their own special place in hell. -- I am going to assume in good faith you didn't know.
