My problem is not LATINO parents and their children.  I am all for language immersion for my child.

My problem is lower income families. There is nothing good about poverty. Poverty is a curse.  And many children and parents are traumatized because of that.

Maybe you can verbalize what exactly you’re afraid of.

Are you afraid your kids will catch The Poverty? Are you afraid your kids will accidentally touch Walmart quality clothing? Or they’ll be invited to a play date at someone’s *gasp* apartment? Poverty isn’t contagious. I’m not sure what your issue is. Unless your issue is just being around poor people.[/quote]

:lol:  :lol: Oh Dear.  Walmart quality clothing is not an issue.  And you will never ever be invited for a playdate in someone's apartment either, so that is not an issue.

The problem is that with poverty comes other issues - food insecurity, uneducated parents, broken family, substance abuse, teen pregnancy, perhaps immigration status issues, criminality, violence, bullying, bad manners etc.

I don't want my kid to understand these societal ills at a young age by being around peers who come from poverty and paucity mindset.  [/quote]

Frankly I’m more concerned about a paucity moral mindset from UMC white ladies[/quote]
