Not poverty but neglect
From: Beryl Williams, School Hill, Wakefield.
I READ recently how a nutritionist was trying to educate poor schoolchildren who had never seen a carrot and didn’t know what one looked like.
This state of affairs is usually blamed on poverty. But I wouldn’t mind betting that every single child knew what a cigarette looked like. This isn’t poverty, it is neglect. Cigarettes cost far more than carrots.
