Dad raging at teacher who confiscates daughter's book for 'reading too much'

A father has admitted his rage after a schoolteacher confiscated his daughter's book after stating that she 'reads too much' during her lunch break. The man instantly came to his daughter's defence and admittedly 'caused a stink' at his child's school over the issue.

While his 11-year-old daughter Cleo is 'very active and social' outside of school, he explained that she 'struggles to make friends' in the classroom. Taking to popular forum Reddit, the parent explained that school children 'don't play' with his daughter as they 'petty much ice her out'.

The dad added: "Her teacher says our daughter often plays alone at recess or reads. My wife and I were not very concerned and explained she's very social and active afterwards."
