The teachers in Gandhi's schools were parents. Gandhi believed that parents should be the source of education for their children. At one point, and untouchable (lowest caste in India) family came to the commnue. The members of Gandhi's ashram believed that the untouchables would pollute the commnue's well. Gandhi asked the meaning of his teachings, because he taught that all people were equal in the sight of God. Other commnue members said that they believed in equality but did not want the untouchable family there. When Gandhi threatened to leave and return to practicing law, the members of the commnue agreed to let the untouchables stay.
