MANEMAN Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Before Relating this story, I should mention that I have a Daughter-in-Law who is of Indian descent.I also have friends and acquaintances of many colours, races, and religions.i.e. - Dont shoot, or even bother trying to shoot the messenger ! Nursery teacher 'sprayed her Asian pupils with air freshener for smelling of curry' Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1356882/Elizabeth-Davies-sprayed-kids-smelled-curry-air-freshener-nursery.html#ixzz1E3CCCUw4"Mrs Davies, of Cilfrew, Neath, was suspended on full pay for 18 months while an investigation was carried out. She was later dismissed." "The hearing, to decide whether she should be struck off the teaching register, continues."That's gonna help the economy then - And the lack of qualified teaching staff U.K. :( "Mrs Davies, a nursery school teacher for 20 years, taught at an inner-city school where more than half of her pupils were Bangladeshi."I wonder if there would have been a similar outcome if she had sprayed the Welsh kids for smelling of "Leeks". Or if working in Arbroath, for smelling of "Smokies."Nobody objects to the smell of, or the after smell of cooking in the kitchen or at the dinner table.But in the workplace, or at school ?I think not perhaps. :) We all have a responsibility to present to our fellow human beings a non-smelly and Hygienic person to interact with at close level. These lessons should be taught and learned during the formative years.Seems to me that this experienced person with 20 years of gathered skills was trying to educate the kids (and their parents) about basic hygeine.And then as usual someone tries to play the "Race Card".The U.K. has gone stark raving bonkers.

andsome Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I just love curry, garlic and onions. If people don't like the smell that it just tough luck. I also like fresh baked bread and cakes, cucumber, toast etc etc, all of which have distinctive smells, SO WHAT?B) B) B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bludgard Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 This teacher was obviousely trying to do her part in curbing the tide of canabalism.If you have people running about reeking of others' favorite dishes,it is only a matter of time before one starts to look at these children as food.We would do well to keep this type of maverick attitude in the classrooms if we desire a fresh generation to run/rundown this planet of ours....;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalph Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 There is a cure for breath with Garlic. Just was a sprig of fresh parsley and chew it, hey presto the smell has gone. Curry and other smells I'm not sure about as I am not a curry person. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsley just neutralises the smell of the Garlic, I don't think you can smell the parsley afterwards. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dencandy Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 I rather think there's more to this than we've been told about. Normally, if someone behaved like this, someone more senior would have a quiet but firm word with the person concerned. Seems more like a mental health problem to me. But after 20years experience, and earning 34 thousand p.a.? Unbelievable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
