Hi,
my partner and I are humanists, we do not believe in the supernaural world,
we have 2 boys age 5&6, both diagnosed with ASD,
they both attend a public infant school.
they both have very limited understanding of the real world,
and take everything they are taught literally,
we do not want our children brainwashed into believing in religion
we believe that our children should be allowed to make their own choices on religion,
when they are adults, and that religion should not be forced upon them at an early age.
I have asked the school to remove them from all reigious education and worship,
they have told us that we cannot refuse regious education, and that we can only refuse to take part in worship or visiting places of worship,
looking on the internet I see many people saying that you can actually refuse,
how do we go about making the school accept our non religious beliefs,
and allow us to remove our children from all religious education classes?
thanks
