I never had a shower this fast. 10 minutes flat. My first thougt was to have a shower in the bath room in the main office, but I didn't want to leave the small office unattended.
When I came out of the bathroom, Jesus was lying on the couch watching cartoon on tv. Since they've been here I never seen him or his siblings have the books in their hands. All they do is watching tv. I wonder when they do their homeworks?
Last week, when the volunteers were here, Jesus was whining as usual. He said he did his homework in his room, and refused to show his finished work to a volunteer.
Carmen, the kid's mother didn't help much either. She falls asleep anywhere she lands her ass.
Jesus is 10 years old, 5' 3" tall, weight 180 lb, and he whines. His sister is way too big for an eleven year old girl too, and she sucks her thumb. Both of them are obese.
These kids are among thousands of inner city children that will fall into the cracks of failing education system. They are among thousands of the children of this city have become the victim of greedy politicians who have no idea what they are doing because they are from privilege world.
They send their children to an expensive private schools. They live in another world, the world they create for themselves and their honcos.
