[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Dad worked 3 jobs- every weekend, every holiday- in factories & as a janitor in a country club in the summer- so my mom could be a SAHM with 4 kids. (1 kid was hers BEFORE they married & he adopted him). We always had food, clean clothes but no free lunches, fresh air fund camp, or financial aid for college.  I worked Full-time to pay for my college- 8 years to get my BS.  Similar for my DW & we had to relocate to find any kind of jobs.

We sacrificed to pay for our kids' college. Our kids did NOT qualify for any special programs, scholarships, etc.  No one came to their school to advise on careers or give them any career/college insights. If we did NOT help them, they would not be able to eek out a living wage.

Sorry I have no sympathy for the child of a single mother or for poor children who get my tax dollars for special programs. [b]As a society, we need to help average, working class & middle class children, for a change[/b].

[b]To the OP, as a teacher, you need to advise your students that not every white person with 2 parents are "rich". AND they have many benefits and programs not available to working & middle class people.[/b][/quote]

DP here.  I never thought of this. ^^^[/quote]
