Mmmmm... no. Nothing in there about being a taxpayer -- just being the mother of a student...

Mmmmmmm.
Curioser and curioser.

Nothing in the article about the mother being alive either.
But I would risk a wild guess that most non-deviant readers (correctly) assume that the mother is alive.

Nope, sorry. She's not complaining because she's a taxpayer -- she's complaining because she's a mother who wants to check out the educational content her daughter receives. Read the article.

I would almost bet that the school restricts visitations for all taxpayers. In fact, I'd even go so far as to bet that most, if not all, public-schools place restrictions on visitations by "taxpayers".

So... try again.

Her daughter was not in the assembly and was suffering no consequences for not attending.

So why did she feel any special right to be there? Were other taxpayers allowed to attend? Were other student-less parents there?
