| Steve: Anybody going hungry especially children is unacceptable in this country. We are supposed to be a first world country and we are (or were) one of the richest countries. But that there is only a problem with hunger is far too tunnel visioned. Reducing activities available such as sport and music reduces the opportunities of children to express themselves and to let off steam. Reducing the ability to go on school trips which are often curriculum related and local reduces their involvement with their peers and chances of success in a subject. I am NOT talking about expensive instruments or expensive skiing trips or cruises. |
