Teenager told to 'act less gay'.

Would you have a have problem with a teacher telling your child to 'act less gay'? And should Muslims only go on Hajj once in a lifetime?

At 1, Nihal asks Would you have a have problem with a teacher telling your child to "act less gay"?

Teachers in Essex have got themselves into all sorts of trouble for telling pupils to "act less gay" if they wanted to avoid being bullying.

Would you have a problem with teacher talking like that to your kid?

There's been all sorts of talk in the office this morning about male members of the team playing with barbies, sons playing with toy kitchens and girls being tomboys. Are these behaviours an indication of your child's sexuality? Or do you think it's preposterous to label children gay or straight? Call Nihal and tell him what you think.

At 2, Should muslims only go on Hajj once in a lifetime?

It is a sacred journey every muslim dreams of making. This year it falls between the 4th and the 9th of November and the holy site of Mecca will see millions of Muslims walking around the Kaba. But are pilgrims going too often? With concerns over cost, over crowding and carbon foot prints would it make more sense simply to go once in your lifetime? Or do you think you are blessed if you can go as many times as you can afford it?
