These kids have NO shame about stating their personal body needs in class, bragging about their latest sexual experience or brush with the law. Why would they be embarrassed about free food? Does not hang for me. I work with high school kids every day and I WISH they had a sense of shame about something. Everything is stated for public consumption by them! This story’s supposed “being ashamed to get free food” sounds like complete bs.

Because being poor is not cool.
Sexually active and lawbreaking is cool.
