Watched Detachment on Netflix. Wow. And so sad...

6. I've been in inner city schools that are clean.Sometimes the custodians

function better than many other parts of an education system. Course, by Thanksgiving most floors and walls are marked up.

What I found unreal was the apartment that the guy had. While I don't pretend to know the spaces in NY and its environs, it seemed pretty spacious for a sub teacher. As fro symbolism, I wondered why the child who became suicidal didn't poison the other cupcakes and only her own...I wanted the school or others to recognize her talent in the film. Perhaps that is the point-talent dies unless it is nourished.

I did like the point in the girl's photo gist to the teacher. I think that educators are not only faceless among many students or their families, they are increasingly encouraged to be faceless. Something I don't think most kids want to have happen.

Anyway, food for thought.
