I remember reading something in the local newspaper that said that a school was forced to change singing "Three Blind Mice" to "Three Visually Impaired Mice".
:rolleyes:

I read somewhere that some schools have banned the phrase "Brain Storm" and had to change it to "Mind Map" because Brain Storm could be classed as another word for what happens to mentally disabled people.

Oh come on thats just plain silly now isn't it? Even if it is in a Islamic country or what ever the children picked the name, she couldn't exactly go 'NO'Z SOZ WE CANTZ CAL IT DATZ OR ITZ WIL B OFFENCIZ LETZ CAL ITZ MR BEAR' now could she?

Just plain silly.

Edit: Too above, our school can't do 'spider diagrams' now we have to call it something stupid because our council believe it will hurt spiders feelings... no joke. :/

It's not political correctness it's some oppressive cult about flying planes into buildings or something

Lol, people have the name jesus? I don't see the difference tbh
lol so what, MUHAMMID i just said it in capital letters

[GommeInc]

That's stupid, it's a name "/ Who cares if it could be named after some religious person who probably in reality wasn't all that great. couldn't they take the bears name as a compliment?!

Heck, people are named Muhammad, surely they need to be slaughtered for dare having such a sacred name? Stupid.

At our school we're not allowed to call it either the teachers have to call it a 'Though shower', lol. Although I don't think any of them care because like most of the students they think it's pathetic.

lol im gna go name my teddy bear mohammed and then tell the local police.

Unless she named it Mohhamed and used it as like a voodoo doll becuase she hated muslims. I see no problem with naming a teddy bear that.
