Teaching the teachers...

Possible child-parent discussion taking place in BC at this moment:

Child: "Mom, why am I not at school?"
Parent: "well, you see the teachers are on strike, and so there is no one to teach you?"
Child: "why are the teachers on strike?"
Parent: "because they don't agree with the government"
Child: "is going on strike illegal?"
Parent: "in this instance yes it is"
Child: "why are the teachers breaking the law?"
Parent: "because they feel like they are doing the right thing"
Child: "isn't breaking the law bad?"
Parent: "yes it is"
Child: "will they be punished?"
Parent: "ummm....."

And here is where all those parents now have an answer.
