I think you missed the point there Ali, kids probably arn't going to see a veiled woman as scary per se, but they'll probably have big questions as to why they aren't allowed to see their teacher. Education about other cultures is all well and good, but this plainly isn't about education. The bottom line is that if we determine that a veil hinders a womans ability to teach then she can't wear one here. If they think it has no effect in Saudi Arabia then it's fine, but we will decided our own laws for ourselves.
