Students Strike

After picking up my regular Friday paper, I was interested to read about the Students who went on Strike this week. THe Students held a 3 day strike in protest at changes to the education system.
My experience of the strike was a little different to the story, my daughter told me on Monday evening that she could go to School if she wanted or stay at home for 3 days as the students HAD BEEN TOLD they were on strike! I said well if you don't strike and you go to class then you still can do your lessons as the teachers are NOT on strike! "OH no" was the reply, the teachers are not going to teach us of 3 days but they will sit in class with us to keep an eye on us. Rather than waste petrol on driving her to school I kept her at home where she did what she would of done at school anyway, spend 3 days blackberry in hand texting her mates!...
