Hmmmm... Apparently the chinchillas like posting empy blog space
Many of my students are struggling with so much. I have one student who has severe learning disabilities that make it really difficult for her to succeed in the regular classroom. Graduating will be a struggle for her, even though she'll work twice as had as everyone else. I've heard alot of "Anyone can pull themselves up from their boot straps" rhetoric recently and it makes me angry. There is a Education scholar named Ruby Payne, that explains that to move up in the class system from lower to middle to have to sever all ties to family, and many to culture. So many people are willing to condemn the "lower class" as lazy, when in truth the upper class are just lucky and born into the right caste system. Unenlightening rant over!
