When Sarah Morse, an American working in Scotland as a substitute teacher, responded to students’ questions about abortion with measured honesty, she did not anticipate her dismissal from the school where she was teaching.
However, for this veteran educator, the lesson she learned was bigger than one innocuous conversation in one history class.

- Students asked for her opinion on various American political issues, including abortion.
- Morse answered that she personally opposes abortion, and was fired later that day.
