[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you think the Trix yogurt is freakout worthy, consider this:  some of the children in your school won't get any dinner tonight.  They won't get any breakfast tomorrow either, either.  They may not have clean clothes, a warm bed of their own, or any books for anyone to read to them at night.  They may not have a winter coat. They may have a parent (or two) who is missing from the home.  They may be living with someone who suffers from addiction.  They may be abused.

You need to step back and realize that if you are in a Title 1 school, you are in that school with families who are dealing with big life issues.  The teachers know it.  The principal knows it.  And here you come, complaining about the goddamn yogurt.  Pack your kid's lunch.  And, since you clearly have time on your hands, find a way to make a real, meaningful difference in these kids' lives.  Because getting them some Stoneyfield isn't going to change the trajectory of anyone's life.[/quote]

How many times can I plus this?

We were at a title 1 school and I forgot what little thing I was zeroed in on regarding my child, something about the uniformed.  If she could wear some kind of shoe...whatever.  When the principal reminded me that some parents have one uniform shirt that they take home each day, wash and have the kids rewear (or just wear dirty all week).

This "trix" argument is so absurd it shows that some parents really have [b]no idea about the lives of the children that attend their schools.[/b]  [/quote]

Will guilting those parents again and again, till they get tired of it and move to the suburbs, really help?   There lots of people in suburban schools rated 9 or 10 who don't want THEIR snowflakes coming within five miles of the kids you describe, and who don't want a cent of their tax money going to help them.

I guess Mercedes conservativism (cadillacs  haven't been good enough in a while, right?) is so much better than limoliberalism.  [/quote]
