[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone I know with failure to thrive kids is giving these same kids money. [/quote]

Likely true but have some compassion. Some of them are brats and can do well on their own but just want to blame anyone but themselves. Others have disabilities that the school system just didn't provide for. With kids that are disabled for life it may be ok that the school system doesn't give them everything because the parents will be taking care of them forever or the state. I mean it's a huge strain on them but the school system can just say that it was beyond their ability and no one is expecting these kids to launch and thrive. There is an entire other group of disabilities that has very little support and they are expected by society to launch anyway. A lot of times money is the only way a parent can care for a child like this knowing that they are not well enough to make enough to support themselves. Would you rather them on the street? We have a lot more disabled than what people currently think of the adult population. Many of these people live at home or are supported at home. They can barely handle a job and paying for their incidentals.[/quote]
