[quote=Anonymous]Working at a soup kitchen or holding a bake sale for children in South America is fine. However, these activities don't really encourage children to identify with, and understand, those eating at the soup kitchen or benefiting from the bake sale. It's nice to think of yourself as lord or lady bountiful swooping in to take care of those "less fortunate." However, many people want their children to interact with a diverse group of peers -- rich, not rich, black, white, Muslim, Christian, etc. -- in authentic settings where they are [u]equal[/u]. School is a great place where this can occur, for many, many hours throughout the day.[/quote]
