Hot Damn! Let's reelect Ozero then!
Hope for Spare Change
Too bad they never bothered to teach him to read and write while they were at it.
and when these poor under-educated kids try to get a job, they are forced to compete with illegals who work twice as hard for 1/2 the money.
Should have been taught to do drywall, paint, electric, plumbing, roofing, HVAC. Trumpet???? WTF?
And then he can work his arse off for the rest of the day. All while getting lessons 'It is always time for school for midshipmen'.
He'd eat well, go to bed and sleep like a baby, and get up in time to sip coffee, watch the sun rise, and say his morning prayers.
Of course, I'd probably be jailed in a few days for violating his civil rights.
But he'd come out of it a decent man.
I did.

Well then we need to start spending more money on this situation.
For now, he said he hopes to be a bus driver or Streets and Sanitation worker, “and that’s about it.”
And more money on that 3 letter word jobs...jobs...jobs...
How embarrassing to stoop to such a level as to take a job as a relocation officer or garbologist.
He can do both. It won't kill him. Besides, you need arm strength build by hard work to do a good job a playing music, which teaches fine control. Which makes you better at detail work out in the field.

I don’t believe these numbers.
And when the homeless, poor, jobless, uneducated, and hopeless line up next November at the polls, they will again vote for those Democrats who destroy their lives.
Two of the best paying (union) jobs in the city. You have to have connections to get those jobs.
The Chicago Mafia's social tweeting network has begun informing students that when The Obammunist is reelected he will begin forgiving their loans, calling it taxs reductions. The students are then requested to begin contributing to al-Kenyata in small increments by credit card monthly.

I don't see anything embarassing about those jobs. Your life and mine depends on sanitation workers.
Any honest work for decent pay is a 'good job'. Sneering at those that do the difficult and nasty jobs that keep us alive is contraindicated.

There was a discussion on Catholic Radio about the problem of what children do worst/best in life.
NOT surprising, children with intact families do better than single mothers, that is, fatherless children.
I've always believed that children 1-12 need mommy more than daddy but when children hit the teenage years...they need the HAMMER, the old man, dad, pop, papa, daddy, father--the man of the house.
My, isn't that old fashioned?
It may be high, but not by an order of magnitude.
Of course, take everything I claim with a grain a salt. I AM just a cook.

“Nationally, 1.6 million U.S. children lived in homeless shelters, motels, with relatives or other families or living on the street”
Living with relatives or other families isn’t “homeless”. What are the real figures?
Yep. I would change your age range from 0-7 for mainly momma, but daddies are needed in that age, too. But we're at least in the same book, if not on the same page.
Children need someone to watch in amazement as papa does something, and then a papa that asks: "Do you know how and why I did that?" Starting off a lesson...
Mother taught me to read at a newspaper level by the time I was 4. Daddy taught me E=I*R at age 7. They didn't let an opportunity to teach go by.
I appreciate them for what they did.

Uh, it seems obvious to me that Jarvis is not, repeat not, college material.
Probably correct, unless he can overcome the crappy basic education he didn't really get.
But he can be a good, productive man.
