stop with the shaming. When you do this, you make all of us who need them the “poors”.

It’s not your place to judge or tell other people not to pick one up. [/quote]

If you are low income, yes you take one.  But, if you are living in a $600K+ house and can afford it and choose to spend your money differently, shame on you.  I'm so tired of people pretending to be "poor" when they make good income but are house poor based off the choices they may.  There are families who really need them and help.  If you are one of those, yes, you take it, but you don't take one if you can afford it and choose not to.  Many of us had to buy them.  We live in a tiny house and had a great laugh at posts commenting about what people do in tiny houses.. that's us but at least we can afford to buy our kids what they need.  [/quote]

Yay, how nice that have so many devices at home. Pat yourself on the back for that. Now go buy books instead of borrowing from the library. There are many kids who wanted the books you borrowed, but yeah you got there first.[/quote]

Library is closed until April soooo[/quote]

Yes and now you have whatever you borrowed for 6 weeks or more. The poor child who wanted it that day couldn't get it then because you borrowed it. If you had bought your own damn books, that child could have borrowed the books you took.

See where I am going?

You probably won't since you seem too dense to understand that even rich or UMC parents may not have that many computers at home and would rather borrow from the school and give it back after all this is over. Maybe they just don't want to spend on things they deem unnecessary for their kids after this is over.

If Warren Buffet thought like you, he wouldn't be so rich.

People claiming upper middle here are making $150k to 700k.  Your kids need a computer in middle and high school.  Why not give them the tools they need.   Warden Buffet lives very well and has what he needs.  [/quote]
