I agree completely. The schools are trying to do something that simply cannot be done. Parents are acting irresponsibly and are threatening their children’s health if they are not feeding them properly. How does a society hold itself out as caring about children when it allows parents who take no care of their children to continue to have custody of them.
If we are going to spend money, it ought to be used to enforce parents’ (including absentee fathers) who are not taking care of their children. Take the children from these uncaring parents (even if they say they WANT to care for them, but can’t— this need not be an issue of blame) and put them somewhere where they will be fed and taught the importance of learning.
The strongest force in America is teacher greed.
gubmint unions in general.
