“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

While how he put it is bad, his point is right. He is saying that the parents of the students on free lunches are not involved with their kids.

There should be strings attached to government aid. Like having to pass drug test, or showing up to your kids PTA meetings, or parent teacher conferences. One of the best weapons against poverty in America is education.

In order to decide if bad parenting is correlated with poverty it is necessary to define bad parenting, then collect data about its occurrence.

1. comparing the poor to small animals.
"My grandmother was not a highly educated woman, but she told me as a small child to quit feeding stray animals. You know why? Because they breed. You're facilitating the problem if you give an animal or a person ample food supply. They will reproduce, especially ones that don't think too much further than that. And so what you've got to do is you've got to curtail that type of behavior. They don't know any better."
So in this paragraph the senator states a. the poor are like stray animals (ie. valueless). b. the poor are dumb and c. dumb things (people or animals) will breed if fed.

so which point do you wish to defend? I'm willing to concede his first point. His granny probably wasn't highly educated.

But my final question is regardless of any other factor his goal is taking food away from children whose families cannot afford it. He is scum.

Actually I said how it put it was wrong. I said he was right on the following points.

1. You get assistance from the government you should have to do something. Like Drug testing
2. There is as strong coralation between parents being active with their childs schools and the sucess of the child.

I have no prolbem limiting free lunches to children whose parents make the time to show up for a parent teacher conference once a year.
If you read the whole article you would have seen the context of the quote. Which I did say was not the best choice of words.

As a very lefty liberal. but also as a school teacher, I am happy to say the guy is an arse, but he does make one good point.

If a kid misbehaves, but the parents try to help, great.

If a kid misbehaves, and we can't even get the parents in to the school, let's just cut the damn parents out of the equation altogether.

Some of our kids have great parents, great older siblings, everything that could want, and they are gaks. To be honest, I'd like to spare the parents the misery of raising the little bastards and pack the little gaks off to Borstal. (Or, if you are American, you might call it "Juvey"?)

Some of our kids are basically nice kids with all sorts of emotional issues who don't deserve the crap they have had in their lives. Some of them, we'd almost want to adopt them ourselves, because their parents are basically evil, incompetent, or both.

The stories I could tell you are genuinely horrifying - houses where families of 6 gak in the bath because the only toilet has been smashed, a 4 year old younger brother of one of my pupils I found walking around in traffic outside of school while his Dad was in the local shop, a 13 year old I referred to social services because there was no parent at his home, he stank and was running wild, 13-year oldboys shoplifting, one of the same boys riding a motorbike along a canal tow-path, a boy who goes mental every time his family is even mentioned, even positively, a girl who was on the game at 12 years old, 13 year old pregnancies and abortions, gang violence leaving a 14 year old in perpetual fear, one 17 year ex-pupil murdered by another current 13-year old pupil, a pupil inside on the most serious drug dealing charges ever faced by someone as young as him, and I don't even get to hear all of the worst stuff as I am only in charge of one year group...

Okay, so some kids with good parents turn bad, but it is about time parents are held to account for some of the failures they have committed whilst supposedly raising their children.

Sorry, I get worked up about this stuff.

The school lunch in the Jr and Sr HS that I went to wasn't fit to feed bears. Allowing your child to eat the school lunch should have in and of itself being considered child abuse.

In HS I went to the ala carte` line (the fancy lunch line that had real homemade desserts and the pizza and chicken weren't made in huge vats and wrung out of grease like a mop before being served).


--The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.

You're not actually thinking before you type are you? Because if you were, you'd have realized you just said, 'If the parent doesn't participate, the kid doesn't eat.' What exactly do you think punishing the child is going to achieve, especially when making them miss a meal on top of whatever else is going on is only going to make their educational performance worse?

No government support will not make the child go hungry, it will make the parent have to supply food for it.
