[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What did your kid say when you explained to them that some houses of worship have dress code rules? If you were a tourist somewhere, you would also cover to enter some places and take your shoes off if you went to a Japanese persons house. I dont get what the big deal is. As a public school family you can opt out of the field trip but you dont get to change the rules for someones belief. [/quote]

No, of course I don't want them to change their rules for my (lack of) beliefs. 
And yes, if I was a tourist interested in going to a church or whatever I'd have to respect their rules. That's why I prefer other destinations. 
My rant was more about the school putting parents of girls in a position where I have to let my kid go or make them feel like they are being excluded. [/quote]

What's the alternative? No girls go? Everyone misses an opportunity  to immerse even for an hour into something other than what they know?[/quote]

Kids still study the ocean and they rarely go on a scuba diving trip [/quote]
