Part #2 - Quickwrite: On a separate piece of paper, reflect on the choices you made. What was the most difficult choice? Why? If you were the 8-year-old and opened your lunch box today to discover the meal your parents had made for you,
would you be satisfied? Think about and comment upon the burden placed on the working parent, who must work in a
field all day laboring mightily, only to come home and realize he/she cannot fully meet the needs of his/her loved ones.
Finally, describe how this family could improve its situation. Brainstorm ideas that might help lift the couple's woges/living
conditions. Would you be willing to do the things you've suggested this family do? Why or why not?
This Quickwrite needs to be at least two-thirds of a handwritten page.
