The pandemic has allowed my eight-year-old daughter to take a break from a culture that was demanding she grow up too fast

Before New York’s mayor ordered public schools to go totally online in March, my daughter, M, was already dealing with a crisis that had begun at the start of second grade. Her teacher had introduced a points system – sort of like Yelp stars for kids – in which she awarded students points for things like remembering putting their bags away in their cubbies or paying attention during morning meetings. M came home upset almost every day.

School meals: How many children can claim free meals?The government is facing increased pressure to provide free school meals over the holidays. I remember a chap at my school who received free school meals, because his parents were divorced. He lived in a three bed semi with his mum and his Dad had a five bedroom detached house and drove a new Jag. Life is not always as it seems. “Why should my taxes go towards feeding vulnerable children” says people happy for their taxes to go towards paint jobs for Buckingham palace and private planes, repairing Big Ben and failed track and trace apps. Wrong question. The question should be, how many families that can claim free child meals actually need to? Most who can don't have hungry kids.
