Privilege

Interesting point of view...

View attachment 53376
One of the counties I substitute teach at indeed has breakfast, lunch and dinner programs. Many of the schools are the only meals the kids get. That's not something made up. I've seen it.

Also, there are several students in one county who attend high school while living in the woods. They are homeless.

By the same token, I've never seen ANY kid (especially in the middle school or high school level) who didn't have an expensive SmartPhone.

Phones are today's security blanket. We all seem to need them. Kid's too for the parents' sake.
 
This is a terrible circumstance.

And it is getting worse.

In another county, there are at least two or three students in each elementary school who will be going home to a single parent living out of a car, or on a campground, or under a bridge. And this is in FLORIDA which has the greatest economy and the highest standard of living in the country.
 
Good. Tell me then because I don't.
