Response to Lewisetta In practice, educators use many terms or labels to discuss children and families who live in poverty. Gloria Rodriguez and James Fabionar (2010) assert that the many terms we use should serve "as a reminder of how often we are called on in education to talk about -- but not necessarily to" -- our students and their families who live with low incomes (p. 64). As educators, we must be sensitive to the effects of poverty on our students' state of mind and ensure that we separate their developing sense of self from their living conditions. As a starting point, we must be extremely careful how we talk about children who live in poverty.

The author Drew Gilpin Faust wanted to show the world a side of the war that Americans have never seen in details. Faust showed the death of the soldiers, and the effect that the war had in their families, appealing to the emotions of the readers.

Poverty is a crippling situation which can stagnate the development of individuals. Insufficiency in a society can affect persons in more ways than one.

Lower paying jobs will more than likely not include quality health insurance for the employee.
Now, if we should embrace America’s interpretation of poverty, then how would we classify those who fall beneath that border line for poverty, based Mr. Smith definition?

Throughout the whole of “The Northern Woods” section of The Nick Adams Stories, one can simply describe Nick as a child, who is both naïve and, in reference to “Three Shots,” cowardly. As mentioned in previous blog posts, Nick’s firing of the three shots—simply due to his fear of the thought of death—is the epitome of his cowardice. However, being afraid is perfectly normal for a child, perfectly summed up by Mr. Adams’ statement upon hearing the shots: “I know he’s an awful coward... but we’re all yellow at that age” (Hemingway 14). Furthermore, Nick’s naivety, as seen by the fact that he constantly questions his father in “Three Shots,” “Indian Camp,” and “Ten Indians,” is also a common characteristic of children—they’re curious and always want their questions answered in an attempt to learn more about the word.
