Swedish school confiscates boy's party invitations
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A school has confiscated an 8-year-old boy's birthday party invitations after they were handed out during class because it said it had a duty to ensure against discrimination.
The boy handed out invitations to classmates at his school in Lund, southern Sweden, but did not invite two boys because they were not his friends, the Sydsvenskan newspaper reported earlier this week.
The school, 360 miles south of Stockholm, confiscated all the invitations, saying it objected because it had a duty to ensure against discrimination.
The report on Friday did not name the boy or his family. It said the boy's father has filed a complaint with the parliamentary ombudsman.
The father told the newspaper that the two classmates were not invited because one had bullied his son and the other had not invited his son to the classmate's birthday party.
"My son has taken it very hard," the father told Sydsvenskan of the school's decision. "It's like taking someone's mail."
The parliamentary ombudsman has asked the school board to decide on the issue before Sept. 8.
"I like my steaks how i like my women. Bloody and all over my face"
"Its like sex, but with a winner!"
