[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don't think it has to be hopelessly naïve[/b]. Sitting next to Connor and Elise might not counteract the issue, but it does educate Connor and Elise on the diversity of life. I grew up in a poor black community (I am white) and don't think there has to be naiveté in the decision. [/quote] Likely because you haven't experienced it. Disruptive kids or kids who lag behind are not going to be popular or befriended by Connor and Elise. They will learn to look at them with pity ("Be nice to them! They have less than you!" says their parent in a belief that is helpful) or annoyance (Larlo! Stop distracting your friends! says the teacher every few minutes) [/quote]
