This is a very interesting point and something that is well explained when you look at what is said above it. To think that our natural responses to people with disabilities is different than what we actually do is wrong. We should treat them the same as people without disabilities. Especially in the classroom. It is important to have those students in the same classes as other students which will better provide for both sides.

This is something that I think parents sometimes struggle with. I think that sometimes they want to impress their kid's friends so much that they overdue it. I think that it is important for parents to be involved in their kid's lives and to know their friends but it should not always be there priority to be the cool mom. They should be more worried about taking care of their kid and their friends and making sure they have a good experience. The results of this could be them being the "cool parent."

This is not a good way to look at things. Problems should not only be addressed if someone complains about it. When a problem is seen the person seeing this problem should do something about it and not just complain to the people higher up. Also many problems can be stopped before they start. This can be done by keeping your eye out for signs of a problem and always trying to make things work out so that the environment you are in is successful and enjoyable.

This is something that is very important to realize. When bringing in new things and getting rid of old things it can be very hard to move on. Moving on is going to take time and is important to let those moving on have this time. Rushing them into new things can cause them to be close-minded and not buy in to the new that is being taught. It is important that they are onboard and this can take some time but is important to be patient and understanding.

This is a great goal but one that is hard to accomplish. Many times I have experienced as a student being in a place where I did not feel comfortable to share. A lot of times this is the case but we are forced to share anyways. This can be a problem and really shut students down for long periods of time. With that being said it is hard to do so but making the classroom environment like this is possible and can be super productive in a student's life.

This is a great thing that they are doing on campus. It is really cool to see a university do such a big thing in trying to help their university becoming a more welcoming learning environment. They did what all places should do. They realize the problem they had at hand and addressed it in a professional way that will help improve their campus.

This is a very great point and one that I experience as well when I went to school. School can become repetitive and unchanging make in ineffective. This is a problem we see all around and I saw as a kid and see as a student now as well. We need to make sure that our schools are constantly changing and that we adapt to the world we know of right now.

It is really sad that so many students are so smart and talented but not able to do what they love because of money. This is a problem we see all over and especially when it comes to college education. Many prestigious universities and schools are super expensive to go to. However these schools might be the right fit for super students but it is not possible for them to go because of money. This is an important problem that needs to be addressed and fixed.

This is a major problem. Along with students not getting into the better schools and not getting an equal education. They are also not getting equal representation in programs that will seriously help benefit them down the road. It is important to make sure that less fortunate students are better represented in programs like these.

In recognizing the problem we must also recognize other factors as well. Life is obviously not fair and others are blessed with certain things that others are not. Many people inherit money and land that lasts them an entire lifetime and this takes away much of the worry in their lives. They do not have to worry about their kids going to a good school or having a good career because it is already set out for them. This did not come from their own work necessarily but from the work of others before them. Even though these circumstances exist it should not stop us from helping others who are much less fortunate.

This is a great point and a great place to begin. When recognizing a problem you have to find the contributing factors as well. The problem of poverty can be from the racializing of class which is leading to more problems as well. The less the people of lower classes will succeed the less those people will be in certain jobs and places and more jobs and places are going to be racialized all over the work.

After reading the first section this seems like a funny statement to me. Sometimes looks can be deceiving but this is the case for this. It has proven in the world today that education has been the opposite of "the great equalizer" and it has actually made it worse and harder. Nowadays if you do not have an education it can be harder to get a job which can make it harder for you to provide for your family which will make it much harder to live an enjoyable life.

This is a great sentence to close out the reading. Like it says one failure or the initial failure can lead to many more in the future. This is important to note and another reason why it is so important to prioritize the youth's education. It is important to look at this from a different perspective and to look at it as if you were the kid. It is not easy to be in this situation and we should be willing to spend the money necessary to get these kids the best education possible to help them succeed farther along in life.

This is a problem that we do not just see in schools but we see all over the country. Many people will complain and try to make a change but then not vote. It does make sense to me and it is something that is very important for everyone in the community to do. If there is a problem it should be fixed by the community and in many communities all you have to do is go out and vote.

To me it is obvious that the second option is the best because it keeps the kids in their own neighborhood with their pre-existing friends. However to say that it will cost too much money is a little bit ridiculous to me. The government spends so much money for so many things that are far less important than the education of the next generation. It is important to be willing to spend that money so the next generation of kids can be more successful in the future.

I think that this section is a very important part of the reading. It shows that a lot has been done to improve education and opportunity for kids however the work is not done. Even though good has been done there is still a long way to go in making education more fair for others and giving everyone the same opportunity to succeed. This opportunity is so important in deciding what a person might do and can affect them for their whole lives so it is important to continue to improve.

I really like the point that this phrase or sentence says. I think it is a great perspective to look at the American dream and say that people's success in pursuing it will ultimately lead to other's success in the process. I think that this is a great way to look at it and something that can be thought of when someone is pursuing the American dream.
