So, teachers’ union was on strike the other day. Apparently, one school in three was closed around the country. The parents were complaining a lot about having to arrange childcare, but the students didn’t look too upset about missing a day of school.

I imagined a pair of schoolgirls, best friends or maybe sisters. Their school is on strike, but Mum and Dad don’t have to know, do they? The girls get ready for school in the morning, walk out of the house, neat in the uniforms. Except, in their backpacks there are jeans and trainers, and they’ve broken their piggy-banks to get a fare to the nearest mall.

Of course the parents find out.

What do you think the punishment would be?
