Hi, Celtic: I am Catholic. A very orthodox one and in the practice of my faith, Catholic cathechism dictated and has taught that we accept everyone with respect, compassion and sensitivity to all circumstances as all are created in the image of God. To do otherwise would be unChristian. It is unfortunate and it saddens me that there have been occasions where you have met conduct which opposes all of that which goes against the core of the very simple tenets of love and Christian thoughts.

It is inevitable that your son who attends a Christian school will be taught tenets of Christian faith, all of which are fundamentally rigid. As he continues to attend school within the structure of a Christian setup, his intuitions will develop accordingly. That is the purpose and hope of any faith school. Before I can proceed further, I would like to ask whether your son's family circumstance made any difference to cultivating friendships in school.

And would this be a Catholic school?
