I think it's simpler than that.  I think it's quite possible that
many of the teachers were married and either lost their spouses
who were either killed by Voldemort or joined Voldemort.  Neither
possibility is pleasant and I think that it's not the sort of thing
in either case that you'd want to bring up in class.
