I do not think that Rav Schwab was advocating that the father "give
a lecture and all listen passively." I am sure that he
was in favor of discussion by all present about the central concepts of
Yahadus that the Seder is to focus on. All should actively
participate. <br><br>
I have found that it is best if one goes around the table and different
people read different parts of the Hagadah. <br><br>
If my child announced what your daughter has announced, I would be
in contact with the teacher and point out that there are different
minhagim and that this is what she should be teaching. In
particular, what your daughter has announced smacks of disrespect
for her family's minhagim, and this is something that the teacher
should not be fostering. <br><br>
