Education Not Looking So Smart?

I was notified today of a story that s just truly sad, wrong, immoral, and broke my heart. No killing was involved directly, but it is about the dolphins in Taiji, Japan. This was an update from Kerry O'Brien (Lead the protest in Auckland, New Zealand) : 

“My Alexandra came and stood up for Dolphins with me on Sept 1st. I find today she was ridiculed at school for doing Dolphin stuff and told it could be regarded as truancy by a certain teacher in front of class mates. Must I take on the NZ education system for my rights as a parent to educate my child as I wish? ..as well as the Japanese Govt!!!” 

It seems now that the school systems and education centers are in on the killing, as is the government. For a teacher to call it truancy for a child working to save dolphins and doing activities that involve dolphins, is an absolute outrage! The school systems are the last place many activists would hope the plague of greed would reach, but I think it has. I also have another theory on why this occurred though...

I think another possibility is that a staff in the New Zealand school system is possibly pro- dolphin slaughter. I think whoever is truly behind what happened above, has maybe realized the power of children, and the willpower they have to stick to something they are passionate about. I think they could have realized that it is becoming extremely evident of whats going on and they are trying to use the above to possibly cover it up a little bit or to simply cause trouble out of spite. These are just the few ideas I have on the subject. (You may comment your thoughts)
