                Grandson also said he turned away, to make sure the boy was allowed privacy.

                Yes, they both (he's a twin) have a deep sense of community. Their parents make sure of that. This grandson has also been a mentor for two years. Perhaps I will continue on this theme. Entitlement is not a word to describe how they are being brought up.

                Reading this does remind me that they are amongst us.

                    I hope the grandson's wake up call brings him a sense that he's 
                
                one of the lucky ones, and that he'll respect his less fortunate classmate's privacy. I'm sure the other boy has put in a lot of effort to fitting in.

                It can be a painful time of year. They are learning their community encompasses many. And yes, the children are well-supervised. Thank you.

                Yes it is pretty grim for many at Christmas. Even to the extent of loneliness. Friendship  does not come easy to the under privileged. At least there are organizations trying to help and it is good for children to be involved if it is safe to do so.
