When I was in the 6th and 7th grade, my teacher assistant would throw out my lunch, and would regularly deny me lunch if I "didn't eat correctly". I am special needs, and that was unacceptable. My mom asked me why I would scarf down my dinner, and I told her why. Teacher was fired the next day.
+Wendy Domino Nah that teacher isn't mean.. That kid is in 5th grade and it is his own decision to not get lunch if all he has to do is do his work. People pay tax money for kids to go to school and learn so they can get an education and keep society moving forward, not to sit around most likely playing in class and then cry when they don't get food. I'd rather my kid learn his lesson from not doing his work by not eating 1 meal out of his day than to get held back and go through that year again. You guys act like that 1 meal is going to kill him....
Layla LaDouceur No, I don't. The kid was told if he did the work he could eat. At that point, it is his decision on whether or not he eats. He can do the work and eat, or not do it and not eat. At that point, it is the kid that is holding himself back, not the teacher. If the kid did the work and the teacher didn't let him eat, then it is the teachers fault.
To the female teacher in this video: Even if students are missing an assignment, you should NEVER deny them the necessary nutrition they need in order to function throughout the day. What you did was wrong and illegal.
Also to the teacher: your a lowlife, your deplorable, and your so disgusting in your attitude. Imagine how you would feel if that you as a child. I'd suggest you think of your own child, but something tells me your too self centered to think of anyone else but yourself.
This is a perfect example of a teacher who has the education but not the common sense or heart to teach children. A hungry child cannot concentrate and learn. Denying him food was inappropriate and humiliating for the child.
@@Lae-zel_enthusiast Ironic how you are calling me a "dumb ass" He doesn't turn his assignments in, so if he turned in 5/9 assignments and this 6th assignment is unfinished. He would fail as you did. 6/10 is a D. 5/10 is an F.
@@miko8832 my kids get fed every morning, get a home made lunch, a dinner, and an evening tea meal if they want too themselves My kids never go hungry because we put them first, my kids are not fat lazy fucks like alot of people let their kids become
Miko Denying a child food is neglect & abuse if someone would to report a person for doing that to their child would be taken from them Call me annoying because you’re damn right I don’t have kids I’m 19 but if you think that’s OK but then again you said ignoring instead of annoying so you must just be a stupid kid
But it's a parents job to make sure their kid gets their morning "need" before school. It sounds to me like the PARENT first denied his son breakfast in the morning. Why was his son not allowed to eat breakfast at home? 🤔
They have meals for parents that are struggling financially, and you have abusive parents, alcoholics and drug users. That is some kids only meal a day
Once I left my Lunch at my house and my parents could not afford school lunch. I so she pulled me outside during class after lunch and told me to meet her after school so I did and she bought me subway she is always buying students lunch even if they have lunch. I miss school sooooo much😥
@cgaskill13 I had a teacher that would do that to the poor kids in my class. So then I started giving part of my lunch to buddies that didn't have food some days as well.
that's sad. what about if his parents didn't have enough money to buy food that day or something. there are kids out there that the only food they get it's from school. smh on this teacher
moonrice555 Some people have kids and then bad things like losing a job or house happens. They don't plan for it to happen it just does. If you never went through it you can't expect to understand it.
Judith Gray Again, I get that. But I work at schools where 90 percent of the kids are on free lunch. 90 PERCENT. Are you going to tell me that 90 percent of those parents just had some bad luck? Really??
Plus you did say "if things are bad at home..." That's what my comment was aimed at. Some people have kids and then life gets tough. Obviously this was aimed at the kids who have tough home lives and can't eat meals other than school lunches.
Tax money should be going for meals for free, students in high/middle/and elementary school. If they want extra food than the standard healthy free meal, than that would be a little extra. Rather have my tax money go for that than senseless pointless wars.
you can't deny a child a meal especially if the family is possibly poor or something...we don't know the circumstances but food leads to brain development and nutrition. maybe that's why he couldn't finish his homework
Marie Lotus I thought it was "Second Chance" breakfast....as in giving people a second chance...but then again I was sleepy (past midnight) when I wrote that... so if I misread oh well.
Muser4Life it's a second chance meal but it's not mandated meaning the teachers aren't required to give them that meal THEREFORE the law wasn't broken. Perhaps the father should be a better parent and feed the kid before school.
Clinton K I'm not talking about breaking the law., I was more focussed on morality which isn't always the same as legal perspective. Legally, maybe she can do that but morally, you can't deny someone a meal. Like, maybe they are super poor. Biologically speaking, some of the high in fat conent foods are cheap and expensive foods are typically the healthier food options. So maybe the dad is a big guy because he always buys unhealthy as a result of finances. I was speaking from a place of - don't eff up a child's development perspective as opposed to a legal one.
When I was 9 years old, We were all going to lunch and this lady I've never seen before pulled me aside and told me not to get food until she came back. I never knew if she was a teacher, counselor, etc. but for almost the entire lunch break I obeyed and I sat watching all my friends eating while my stomach was starving. Around the last 10 minutes they all convinced me to get something to eat so I went with about 6 minutes left on the clock to eat. The lady appeared at that time and yelled at me in front of everybody. Obviously as a nine year old who never got in trouble before, I was scared and cried of humiliation/embarrassment for being yelled in front of the entire cafeteria. I never saw that lady again, I never knew who she was or why she told me to do that. The school denied it ever happened. Then again, this was years ago.
I’m 16 now, but I remember in elementary i didn’t have money for lunch 3 times, and for those 3 time’s my teacher bought my lunch for me until I could money because I’m being honest I just forgot to ask my parents for lunch money. Still she was a nice teacher, god bless her.
@@youtubestudiosucks978 No, I never really thought of it, and besides I looked through my old schools website and she isn’t there, so my assumption is she either left a long time ago or retired. If I could, I would considering the type of person she helped me be.
@@YoungFollower678 it's fine, you're grateful and that's what counts, you can always pay it forward with other people! So don't feel bad you weren't able to pay her back! I'm sure her heart is happy she was able to help you!
But jeez... as a mom of young kids... I don't think it was your responsibility to remember to ask your parents for lunch money. I think it was your parents responsibility to make sure you had lunch money or lunch every day for school. Elementary is young. :/ sorry I don't want to offend. It's just my thought when I read your comment.
@ғuňţċѧsє ţuċҡғѧяԀ First things you learn as a teacher is that a child should never be denied the ability to go to the toilet, get water or eat food. That's a human requirement.
There have been times in my preschool where a child's parents would accidentally forget to pack them lunch. I have seen our staff go out to buy food for them. How dare somebody deny a child food. If a child is hungry, even though we don't usually provide breakfast or dinner, we will do whatever it takes to get them fed.
Accidentally? Did yall ever talk to the parents about remembering to do it? Seems like ones of this things that they "forgot" because they know yall are kind hearted to make up for them
@@hidan407 You...suggesting that this family was scamming the system. WTH is wrong with you? Are you scamming the system? Because that would be the very first thought of someone who is a scammer themselves.
@@danni1993 or someone who seen stuff like that all the time growing up( In the hood) and know that whenever there is kindhearted people ( the lunch ladies), there will always be people that tries to exploit it.

@@quabledistocficklepo3597 No she just had extra food for the students. She had permission from the parents and all the children’s allergies. Most parents brought food but sometimes they would forget. We never really had child abuse cases in the school.
@@Leanne-jm5gc My aunt taught school for over 30 years. She NEVER let her kids go hungry either. She was a Community Outreach Specialist through her Sorority and she always had connections to get school supplies, toiletries, snacks, etc. She also had a Parent/Teacher Co-Op where people would donate items and they were distributed throughout the cluster of schools in the area. You have no idea how many kids were helped and Auntie Pam never made mention of it. She truly believed in It Takes A Village to raise a Child. She's dearly missed. We had SO many if her former students at her funeral, my cousins were overwhelmed by the outpouring of support and live they all shared for the same sweetheart of a lady. Miss you, Auntie Pam😪🙏🏾🙏🏾
i remember my 2nd grade teacher giving me quarters out of her purse when i didn’t have enough money for lunch or ice cream. ice cream obviously wasn’t a necessity which is why i wasn’t given money for it since we were tight on cash, and sometimes didn’t have money for lunch. she noticed when everyone would go down without me, and would sneak over to give me some change. i didn’t realize how sweet that was until years later when i understood.
Correct food is not a form of punishment. But to an extent. Let me explain. The teachers don't have authority. But in my household my mom I refuse to eat the food and she says well don't eat anything go hungry the food will be there when you get there you're not getting anything you want. The point is they are not supposed to be disciplinarians as what we have our parents and the teacher was wrong
Imagine feeling in ANY WAY justified at keeping FOOD from a young child! As a teacher I can't imagine! There are mistakes, but then there's just being mean!
I can understand being like "You can't have this candy until you do xyz" but denying a child a meal they actually need is completely unjustifiable. I don't see why you would ever take away something a child needs as a punishment. If a parent did that, the school would probably be like "oh that's abuse". Teachers are not parents to these kids, but that doesn't mean they can get away with doing things a parent cannot.
@@theredscum4202 why didn’t the fucking school feed him if they have SECOND BREAKFASTS for a REASON? it’s for kids who missed breakfast if for whatever reason they’re late. not only that, it’s not a matter of “why didn’t the parents give him food?” it’s the fact that they EXPECTED him to go to school and to get breakfast there. but no, he was denied a meal because of the fact he missed an assignment. NO CHILD should go hungry as a punishment. it’s just unnecessary and doesn’t teach them ANYTHING.
@@theredscum4202 they offer breakfast like that for kids who's parents don't have time in the morning to feed them. Which is the situation for a shit ton of parents. I know your comment is 5 months old but damn, you are straight up dumb.
I know she's in the wrong but it's still her right not to be filmed. He could voice record her or something else. But it's still her right not to be filmed. And yes I know she violated the child's right but we don't go by an eye for an eye.
Teacher had the nerve to say "I wish you'd ask permission before recording me." I'm sure the dad would've appreciated her asking him before starving his son.
Darth, you wouldn't actually deny him food if you were his teacher and he was in front of you. You're most probably a nice person IRL, who just comes here to fume and be against the general opinion.
Darth Skater But what does that have to do with being "liberal"? Parents pull that kind of shit everywhere from all walks of life. Actually, there have been many 'conservative' parents who wanted teachers fired for discussing evolution in class. People always assume that the 'old day' were better, but we're actually becoming much better in terms of BS and actual harm.
As an army brat I used to get transferred to several elementary schools. Most teachers were really good about making sure we ate. The last elementary school I went to, I had one really mean teacher who absolutely hated students from poor families or military families. Missing my lunch was the least of my punishments for any slight or difficulty in doing homework. Every base school is different and no two teachers are the same.
My mother was a teacher for years and I helped her in her classroom. We always had extra snacks for kids just in case, snacks SHE bought. Now the government is helping by having free lunch and breakfast. The sheer ignorance of this woman is staggering. Never EVER did we not give a snack to a child during meal time, regardless of financial status, homework, behavior, etc. YOU are the teacher, YOU are supposed to be CARING for the students. How is not letting him eat as punishment CARING for a child?? Can you imagine punishing your own child at home by saying "Sorry lil Jimmy you didn't make your bed so you don't get any breakfast today" ???
@@javiermiranda1751 The sad thing is that she shouldn't be called a hero at all, she shouldn't HAVE to make sure kids aren't going hungry in America, the ass backwards country that loves hyping up how great it is. And no teacher should think it's normal to punish kids by having them not eat. The teacher in this video has zero compassion or empathy.
In Swedish schools students can have as much food as they want. When one of my favorites was on the menu I had seconds. I was so full that I had trouble walking. I miss the school food. It was good.
in 2nd grade my teacher used to have snack time and i always appreciated it. they were very simple snacks but it was my favorite time of day. it was such a bonding experience. food is more than nourishment , its bonding
As a person who deals with low blood sugar. This is a nightmare to me. This woman is lucky this kid did not have this problem or she would have had something real bad on her hands. Also thank goodness this kid was ok. Hope he got to have some food that day.
Well if your child has low blood sugar im sure you would let the teachers and school nurse know. If there’s a health reason she would have let him go to second breakfast. I think the father should have fed his child or dropped him early for first breakfast. Or explained to the school that it’s crucial his son eats while at school. Because he may not afford food. Communication with adults is important because children do lie to get out of things. And many kids throw the food away because they weren’t really hungry
@@CG-pj4dh finally a comment thats not soley blaming it all on the school and pointing out logical things. Kids do lie just to get out of things and count on people feeling sorry for them to get away with it. I remember when I was a kid, people lied about not eating just be get out of class or just being a fatass to look cool.
I had a friend in middle school who was diabetic and the school took away the entire lunch she brought from home. All because there was a candy bar, in case her blood sugar dropped. The school didn't even allow her to have her insulin on school grounds, not even in the nurses office. They considered anything, other than Tylenol, a illegal substance or an healthy lunch. (Despite only selling fried, greasy foods and ice cream) We had a class together after lunch, so I snuck my fun-size candy in my pocket. When she asked to go to the nurse, I was asked to follow so "she doesn't leave the school". She collapsed and I just barely caught her. I snuck the candy in her mouth, whispered, "eat this and hold on" and booked it as fast as one piggybacking a fellow teen could. An ambulance was called and her blood sugar was so low, she could've died. I was told that bit of sugar I gave her was the only thing that kept her. The school demanded she tell them who gave her the "drugs" and she refused. Their excuse to them nearly killing her was, "she got her fix somehow". Many lawsuits came on them for other reasons, but she didn't even tell her parents until we graduated that I was the one who gave her the candy. They thanked me for saving her and all I said was, "it was just a feeling I had that she'd need it." I didn't understand diabetes and still kinda don't. All I knew was her blood sugar was going to be low and I knew that I would be called to "walk" her to the nurse. If she didn't eat something, something bad would happen. I didn't think she could die, but that was a very sobering experience, knowing you may have saved someone by doing something as tiny as giving them some candy.
"I didn't know I broke the law" If you're caught speeding and say I didn't know speeding was against the law you're not just gonna get a free pass dude
The teachers face told me all I needed to know about the situation. I went to school when you could get paddled with a wooden board but even when my worthless mother failed to do the application so I could get free lunch someone at the school still made sure I was taken care of. In 9th grade I had an english teacher give me a roll of lunch tickets so i would never have to miss a meal.

@@mrs.chandler9384 wth, so what? that's for his parents to deal with, if he's overweight or not. and you literally can't even see him in the video. and still, that doesn't make what she did not wrong.
It’s actually healthier for one whom has more fat on their bodies to fast because that means that their body will start consuming the fat and that will in turn lessen the weight of the child and lower and risks of diseases or sicknesses related to obesity. Also I highly doubt that kid even knows what being hungry feels like.
When I was in tk my teacher got me in trouble from saying stupid because some girl thought I said it and it wasn't even me who said it it was some other kid so I missed reces and I was 6
Also that same year I had a mickey mouse toy and it made one noise and she took it away and never gave it back till the week was over and it was my favorite toy and it was on Monday
A lot of people are arguing the fact that his dad should have provided him with breakfast, but we don't have the facts why that didn't happen. It's Called, "Second Chance Breakfast" for a reason, and that's where the argument sits.
msotrfan1 You don't know that child's home life. Even if he's fine, what if this happened to a kid who qualified for free breakfasts and lunches? Those could be the only meals a child gets.
chiillmo Reread my original comment above. You reiterated what I originally said. "Second Chance Breakfast." Yes, I agree. It should always be given if provided. This teacher needs to be informed what ramifications will be brought up on her if she does not comply with state standards.
My kids prefer to eat breakfast at school, plus I know many parents who drop their kids off at latchkey services because they work before class starts, so some kids are at the school as early as 6am. Then on the other hand, for some kids, school meals are it for them. I completely agree with you!
moonrice555 I don't need to work at a school to have A "important" opinion, what that teacher did was wrong & I stand by that also I'm not old enough to work at a school yet just going to one tells me what teachers go through & it's still simply wrong to refuse to give someone food
TGC Productions.Orbit Plus, getting to school on time had nothing to do with it. She denied him the meal because of the assignment, not because of the time he got there.
I feel like even denying a small kid to use the bathroom is a form of abuse. I remember when I was in kindergarten and I really had to go to the bathroom after lunch, I asked the teacher if I could go and she told me to wait. I waited for about 30 minutes and then was finally tired of waiting because I couldn’t even hold it in any longer, so I went to the bathroom without asking again. As soon as I came out I got written up for “not listening” and yelled at. Like what would she want me to do pee myself or on the floor? 😂
one time in kindergarten we had cards with our lunch numbers on it AND WHEN I COULDN'T FIND MINE MY TEACHER LEFT ANYWAY AND DIDN'T LET ME GO TO LUNCH WITH THE CLASS LIKE ??
Jasmine Lynn one time when my sister's in 1st grade she always came home from school with her lunchbox untouched because she didn't know how to use spoon and forks yet.. idek how was she not passing out because she was doing it for weeks
Jasmine Lynn she had primary complex when she was 9 which means she's only going to eat whenever she takes her medicine which is almost every 5-6 hours which made her lose a lot of weight and now she's 17 and she's doing great and she's still underweight but she eats a lot, it's just hard for her to gain weigt
This is like cutting off your nose to spite your face. The whole reason this meal is provided is because a child's ability to learn and perform in school is significantly worse when they're hungry and have missed a meal.
We use to have a paragraph in defense Bills that said we wouldn't give weapons to the Azov battalion. Now that paragraph is gone and we supporting neo nazi's in Ukraine. That seems worse right ? Or the child not having a meal lol
This would literally happen all the time at my school. Kind hearted classmates would often give me some of their food because I couldn't afford it. Yet we give robbers murdered and rapists free food in prison paid by taxpayers. As for this being a private matter, bullshit. The school district wont do crap, they all have eachothers back just like corrupt police departments or abusive bosses
I am a parent and yes I would be upset if a teacher did this to my child. However, I think there's more to this story. The father said this is the 2nd time you've done this. My question is... does the child have a history of being late that he has to eat at 2nd chance breakfast? Is this a late issue?
It's called second chance cause breakfast is served twice, before school starts and after 1st period. I always ate the second chance breakfast cause I wasn't hungry before that.
I remember back in the day when I was in elementary if you owed money they’d hunt you down over $2.50 and say you owed money and brought money for lunch that that day, they’d take your money and let you starve Bottom line is, it’s wrong and it’s not the kids fault they deserve to eat!
@K Maxx Bruh have you ever heard of a lunch period? If they don’t get to eat their lunch, they’re gonna have a hard time concentrating on their work. Teacher, lunch lady, or not nobody has the right to deny a child’s meal.
She didn't deny him breakfast, she denied him an optional second breakfast. She didn't break the law. She didn't deny a hungry child. I swear people don't understand basic things it's scary.
You can’t deny any child food. It won’t benefit them: 1. They will be starving and won’t focus on anything but their hunger 2. They probably will fall asleep because of lack of energy
@@EdmundiumHitting I actually have been able to fall asleep despite being hungry. It was because I was worried i was gaining too much weight. But then the moment i got up from my naps, i ate 🤣
I 100% agree with this man. I guaruntee you, that teacher was "personally offended" by the boy being "overweight" and decided he could stand to miss a few meals. Maybe his blood sugar was spiking without breakfast, how does she know? I used to teach elementary school. I started seeing the schools hiring these new teachers with smug judgemental attitudes towards their students for things like being overweight, poorly dressed kids, and began taking authority over kids they deemed to be needing punishment by denial of food, recess, bathroom breaks. I had students who had to go to the bathroom often because of health issues, and/or prescriptions they were taking to treat health issues like diabetics, undiagnosed diabetics! But, this teacher denied that man's son food for breakfast - food that is there at school for the children to eat. It gets tossed out - if uneaten or unused. This teacher's attitude sucks. If I was that student's parent, I would sue the school district. That's what we the people need to do, sue these smug people with elitist attitudes, like our out of control federal government spending trillions without the permission of we the tax payers, giving billions away to other countries!! Any company that mistreats or singles-out certain individuals to punish or to treat worse than others, should be sued.
mymak2015 ok I didn't say it was there fault but I found it hard to concentrate throughout the rest of the day I wasn't even hungry I just felt unwell after and had a headache. I dont understand what the point of your comment was. Waa you trying to say it wasnt really a big deal ? Because it wasn't
The program is for families who have extenuating circumstances - people who can't afford food, people who are so busy working to afford food that they can't prepare it for them in the mornings.
School breakfast is awful. Feed your child at home. Oatmeal is nutritious and cheap. Come on dad, you can do better. Free school food should be a last resort for nutrition.
To this day, no matter how poor I have been, what would be more outrageous to me would be if I didn't provide all meals for my own kids (which I did). It's weird how much entitlement we are in now, people are outraged that someone else isn't poneying up the money to take care of their kids.
Teachers should not deprive meals for disciplinary reason. Wrong. But parents is ultimately responsible for feeding kid. Most parents can but don't because they're lazy & want entitlements.
@@valeriekehrt7566 I agree, it's not a matter of me "hoping kids are denied food" for sure. I would wish someone would step up and feed the kid. I have covered food for people in need MANY times, and I have donated to charity extensively in my life, feeling I owe it to society since I made my success within that society. But I just feel a parent who won't do what it takes to support their kid, is a pathetic thing (setting aside some live in places where it's nearly impossible, I will never judge people who live in amazingly hard places to live).
I can see your point but if you saw some of these parents it would really make you wonder what these kids have to go through in their lives. To punish a child because their parents are incapable of providing for their child is just cruel. Do you know how many druggies have kids? You can't learn if you are hungry.
@@tundrellaCat68 agree. The only thing that bothers me is that this kid did not look deprived in anyway. Neither at any one point, did the father address if his child did miss his homework or no? And was it something the child did all the time. And was the kid trying to skive off while the teacher asked about his homework?
We still pay here in Kansas and it's totally DISGUSTING "healthy" food. They will get a cold hamburger patty NO bun and a tomato slice for a vegetable serving and a couple slices of apples for fruit! It's RIDICULOUS paying over $3/day for that crap! So u either pack a cold lunch for them or waste $$ on a school lunch!!
There are 3 breakfast periods in CA. There’s traditional breakfast, which begins about 40 minutes before school. There’s “Breakfast in the Classroom,” upon which this segment touches. At this time, a monitor delivers a breakfast snack (like a muffin with fruit) and milk to the kids. What most call “Recess,” we call “Nutrition,” which occurs at around 10:20am. Kids can eat from the cafeteria during Nutrition, and many middle and high schoolers have access to vending machines as well. By 11:40, it’s lunch time, and the State will feed the kids yet again. The State offers a free program, called “Beyond the Bell,” which feeds the kids free snacks at around 2:30pm, regardless of individual income as long as 50 percent of the school’s kids are eligible for free lunch. In LA, there’s a 5th feeding of “supper,” at over 500 schools in low income areas, which any child (no attendance requirement, capped at age 18) can access, whether or not the child attends Beyond the Bell. CA offers kids over 4000 calories per day.
@@KamalasNotLikeUs wow! Well, we are FAR BEHIND u all out there for sure!! I'm thankful my 4th son is 16 and a junior and can come home during lunch to eat!! It's also a *bonus* that we live right across the street from the HS so I don't have to worry about him driving or whatever! We live in a tiny town so that helps too!
Pay attention to the sequence of events and to the facts. The kid failed to do an assignment. "Second chance breakfast" is not mandatory. Instead, is it an option to eat breakfast during a break after first period. Not mandatory. Assignments are mandatory. Who should be ashamed? Father for not ensuring kid did his assignment and for not providing breakfast. Student failed to do his own assignment- he should use the break after first period to do it. Second chance breakfast is optional. Father should be ashamed of himself for making it the teacher's fault when he is failing as a parent to both feed and ensure his kid is doing his homework *again*
At my middle school we had a physical Ed teacher, who would buy all sorts of snacks and make sure we had them in case we didn’t have a big enough lunch. She said that it was a good idea for us to have a snack especially if we were running around doing physical activities.
So did the 10 year old kid consistently not do his assignments and skive off to eat a second chance breakfast cos he’s asked to do his work? How come no one asks the kid or father this?
There are many kids who only get to eat at school.....One of the reasons why school systems gave out meals all summer because of this Covid deal. A little research on child hunger would go a long way.
David Terry You’ve worked in the education system for years and still have to ask why there may children who aren’t being fed breakfast in their homes? That’s just indicative of your failure to see beyond what a student’s life could be at home.
is absolutely nothing wrong with that send a kid to school with a breakfast bar and his backpack if you can't fix him a meal. Parents these days think that it's other people's obligation to feed their child and then blame the teachers for everything the kid does wrong. This kid ask for a second chance breakfast in the middle of his first-class long after breakfast had stopped being served. why didn't this Dad grab something on the way if he already knew his kid was going to be late? Or at least stuff a cereal bar into his backpack on his way to school? it is not the teacher's job to make sure your child is fed
Right? The entitlement and whininess is too much for me. The father looks like he's well fed and not hard up. The child certainly looks like he's gotten fed regularly. It's not a mandated meal. If he poured 1/2 the vindictiveness and scorn he had into getting his kid to do homework...or school on time...his child would probably learn an invaluable lesson.
Omg, he wants her career ruined over this. So many people feel entitled to ruin someone's life over a bad decision. But I'm sure this father is perfect and has never made a bad decision in his life, if he ever does I hope someone demands his life be ruined too. Smh!
When I was a kid growing up we had this thing called a home, and we ate, incredibly, at home before going to school with food provided by my parents and not taxpayers. Back in the old days, people were cognizant of personal accountability and responsibility. Crazy times back then, I know.
Not everyone is wealthy enough for food at home but man your right food at home is good but still there’s kids who are homeless and go to my school and it’s the only meal they get so it’s important which is why even during Covid our school still gives out breakfast and lunch
When I was a kid growing up we had this this called poverty, and we didn't eat, incredibly, at home before going to school with food my parents couldn't provide not taxpayers. Back then, people realized that children are not responsible for their parents inability to manage money and keep their kids fed. Crazy times back then, I know
Wealthy? You have to be wealthy to be able to feed your kids some cereal and a Banana? If you can't feed your kids then you're too poor to have children. Do better.
Initially i was assuming that the teacher took away the kid's meal from him but it turned out that the dad is upset that the school didn't feed his kid when in fact it is his responsibility to feed his child. It is not the school's and society's responsibility to do so. It's the dad's primary responsibility to feed his kid at home before coming to school. Second chance breakfast is only there as a privilege. IF the dad took the time to feed his kid and into making sure that the kid completed his work, then it wouldn't have been an issue. Entitlement is such a disease these days.
+Misti D (Mysterious Undead) The kid is forced to be there. School attendance is compulsory, and teachers do not have the right to deny kids meals as punishment.
+The Borg ok so the kid is forced to be there, shouldn't the kids parents be forced to feed a child before school ?The secondary breakfast shouldn't be mandatory and guess what it isn't.schools do that out of kindness and as a way to tax us taxpayers more.we were all semi forced to go to school and we didn't get a school breakfast and survived, hell my breakfast was lunch at school so quit being a self entitled cry baby.Hell I come from a Low to mid income family at best growing up (mainly low) maybe the dad needs to get a damn job.
That same thing happened to me when I was 8. I went to go to lunch and the lunch lady called out, in front of all of my friends and everyone in the lunchroom, "Are you (My name)?" Me: "Ummm yeah?" Lunchlady: "You haven't paid for lunch in 2 days. No lunch until you pay." I mean its not the same exact thing but its kinda similar. My family and I were having money problems at that time and thats why I had not paid, because we barely had enough money for even our bills.
@@tboman4128 I wasn't rude to you. Get out of your mom's basement and make your own money. I have a hob and a family that I provide for. You have a bad day or what? Your the ass, an impulsive one at that.
@@jasonpiwarski5016 Just don't like people that think suing is the answer to everything. I'm a retired I.T. professional with over 38 years in. So no mom's basement. You're an ass for posting SUE. Maybe the dad should feed the kids in the morning. But to be fair, there was not enough information in the video to come to any conclusion with out assuming a lot. Get over it.
uninspired Why does it matter? If he is hungry he's not going to be able to concentrate, doesn't make any difference what size he is, she isn't buying him food and I would hate to think this woman would use food that is provided by the school district, state and county as a way to force children to have school work done so yes she should be fired. If she has kids, does she withhold food from her kids for not cleaning their rooms?!!!
Leelo James he looks pretty well fed at home yet can't do the homework there either so i doubt missing breakfast would affect him much. It's a shame that the father is so focused on getting revenge against the teacher but he can't muster the same passion towards educating his son.
Missing breakfast can make you gain weight. There are lots of kids who don't have a parent there to cook them healthy breakfasts let alone any meals. I was lucky to have home made nutritious meals cooked for me and as hard as it was for me, i cooked for my son tho he also was approved for subsidized breakfasts, I just feel that none of us know why this kid or his father are over weight. I can only guess that one or both parent work and spent their evenings in drive thru lines instead of grocery lines. Denying this boy food (skipping meals) is only teaching his body to starve itself so when he eats anything, he'll over eat.
The moment she piped up and said Id appreciate it if you asked my permission to film me I Would have reminded her she didnt ask my permission to deny ny child a meal ...its abusive to tell a hungry child he cant eat
Even in high school assignments are completely worthless. In 11th grade and I can't remember anything from previous years. The public school system is a joke..
It is not about that - it might have been petty but it probably was a problem he had about not doing his work. This was not a mandated meal - it's like an extra snack before lunch.
i mean...i got like lowest possible Ds in school and now own a new porsche 911 and a 3500sq ft house lol....it really doesnt matter what happens as long as you pass
They specifically stated "not mandated" as in not required as in, she didn't break the law. Giving him a second meal isn't required to happen and is ok. But since yall ignoring this detail yall just babbling on in the comments .
Finally someone with brains! If the kid wanted the meal then maybe he should of done his work. If I was the boys father I would show it as a life lesson if you don't do work you might not be able to eat.
