[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eating three meals a day and having after school activities seemed to make a difference with my children. [/quote] Did you or the school provide them?[/quote] I don’t think who pays for it makes a difference. [/quote] Of course it does. When you pay for them, the school has more money for other priorities. When the mission of one institution, like schools, is expanded to include what should be the mission of other institutions, like social services, then it becomes difficult to allocate the money fairly. Because, obviously, preventing starvation is always more important than new textbooks or smaller classes. So when can we work on those other, educational priorities, when the social service basics could, conceivably, consume most of the institutions funds and time if allowed to?[/quote]
