Reasons To Disagree
Teachers should have discretion to decide. A child might wear a full-length covering and be listening to headphones and watching a DVD movie underneath!
Only if it is a school of their particular faith otherwise only at their particular temple, mosque or church.
If it is of a nature which is likely to give offense to the majority, or can lead to abuse such as concealment of weapons etc, it should be banned.
This would be just another aspect of the deliberate brainwashing of unformed minds, and is tantamount to child abuse. Why do children almost universally adopt the religion of their parents? It's not because they are making an informed choice.
The real question here is, is it sensible for parents to choose the gear their kids wear according to the instructions of some militant extremists? If they set their kids apart by the way they dress, they must not be surprised when other kids behave like kids and take the mickey.
Look, I respect people's religious rights, but if the kid doesn't want to wear a religious thing to school or somewhere, then the parents have no right to ram their views down their throats.
Sorry. Creates too many problems. One person's crucifix is another person's full hijab.
Fukk off!!! You choose to move to a secular country then live by their rules and cultures. No religion fullstop those idiots!!

Reasons To Agree
Until you are an adult you live under your parents rule, so long as they do not abuse you, it is their right to control aspects of your life - religion is one of them (of course if you get converted somehow, a parent would be a fool to try and force you back to their religion)
This is a simple matter of personal and religious freedom. Who are we to tell others what they can and cannot wear!? It is also not for secular societies to decide what believers should do and should not do. It is a matter between the individual and their God
If they feel they should, then yes.
Absolutely, a parent has the right to raise a child with the ideals they believe in themselves. The state has no right to make a persons child a child of the state, thats perverted and something we would see in places like North Korea. Therefore a parent should be able to dress their child how they see fit.
i think nz is a very diverse country and we should show it. children learn from there parents and if they are raised right then they should know right from wrong. If the children take the micky out of that child then obviously the parents need to teach their child a bit better.
Also if people are being constricted in what they wear or are afraid to wear them then what does that show about are country? and if we do not show your religion then it might be forgotten
