Chapter 8 Reflection

This chapter covers the problems that lie within the relationship between education and poverty/socioeconomic class. As I was reading the chapter, I caught myself forming a mental laundry-list of the problems faced by the lower class. I found the section about migrant families specificaly intruiging. I had many friends growing up who fell under that category. It was interesting because I had never taken the time before to really think about the obstacles that they were faced with, like poor housing and home conditions.
