The article wasn't very clear. It says

A middle-school teacher in the northern Italian town of Como set off a storm when she told Muslims in her class that if they preferred they could replace the line "this is the day of Jesus" with "this is the day of virtue."
This tell me that the teacher gave the childrens option to change the word. It did not prevent other children to keep the original line. So, why is it a problem to give children options?
