A young mother said her child, which was seven years old, didn't want to go to school because people were calling him names like terrorist. They were pushing and kicking him. He started having nightmares and didn't want to pray or be a Muslim anymore. When she told teachers about it they didn't care and said her son was making it up. Muslim parent are afraid of what their children are going to go through. They are having an irrational fear of hatred because they are Muslim.
Discrimination has increased in the United States since 9/11 because people think that all Muslims are terrorists. People think that since some Muslims crashed the planes that all the Muslim people should be blamed for it. Ways we can decrease discrimination against Muslims is to try to tell people that not all Muslims are bad.
