That used to be the idea. Now, virtually every little parasite gets "free breakfast". And the little parasites are encouraged to sign up for "free summer meals" to get breakfast, lunch AND dinner during the summer, for themselves AND a parent or sibling.
So even if the "parents" are worthless, lazy welfare scum, their little bastards won't go hungry. And this largesse is at OUR expense, and doesn't hurt their food stamp allotment so they can continue to blackmarket those.
I'm sorry, if you can't feed the children you've birthed, you don't deserve to have them.
Schools in my area are offering 2 meals through out the summer. I don’t think you have to be in summer school, just be a student of the school.
