After a relentless campaign of bullying, hectoring and nuisance phone calls, parents at a Japan school got their way - ALL of the kids got to play Snow White, the lead in the schools Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Apparently, this is a new emerging problem in Japan. All of the parents want their kids to be #1 at everything and will stop at nothing to get their way!

What do you think about this?
Personally, I feel that all kids have their strengths and weaknesses and the kids who are talented in that area should be rewarded.

Well if you ask me, this is very stupid, I can see if they are protesting about something that really mattered, but get real!! A lead in a school play..Now they have 25 snow whites and no dwarfs, it would not be very much of a play as far as I am concerned, all they did was mess the thing up big time..There is only one snow white in this play, athats all there ever was or ever will be. I myself would not ever waste my time to go see that mockery..
