I just heard this on the radio:

"There are 26,000 homeless students in the Washington State education system. Two-thirds of them live in urban counties and one-third in the rural parts of the state."

In no way have I changed my mind about the importance of the parents' role in the education and literacy of a child, but this story does show that there really are more important things than teaching one's children reading and writing. Like, where will we sleep tonight and where will we go to the bathroom or shower? What about food?
