That they are just seeing as a burden to the pockets of their families?
I consider old people to be very valuable cause they carry decades of life experience, I think that just the fact that they took care of us in our younger years and keep taking care of us by giving us wise advice they should be highly valued. It makes me sick when they are put in asylums because they are an ecomonic burden :( , I understand some people honestly cant take care of them, but to be put away just because their value as human beings is measured by how much they contribute to society???? That is sickening.

Does it hurt when they smack you on the forehead? Isn't it likely you'll crack your head real hard when you hit the floor?

Why is that mexican american, cuban american, chinese american and so on and so forth are considered seperate minorities, but white people are lumped under 'white'? Why is there no german american, irish american, scottish american, ect minorites? If it just went by color, why are cuban, peutro rican and mexican all considered seperate? They're all the same color, just like white people are (actually, if you look at an italian and a swede, they are definately NOT the same color)
My example- a college application or the SATS both ask for a race- peurto rican and mexican are seperate on those, but 'white' is just lumped together. Can anyone give me a logical reason for this?

It seems that many students are lacking it, more so than in the private schools. My kids go to a private school now, but will transfer to public next year (due to trying to save for college)
I am very nervous about this.
Thoughts?

Thanks for all your responds...First..I did not take anything away from the indians..Infact my grandmother survived the nazi regeme, my grandfather was a german in the army at the time..not once in there 60 years of marriage did I ever hear them talk or argue what someone owes them..especailly those who where tortured..Because I may look white to this family..all I hear is what people owe them..I do not own land that was once Indian land. I did nothing to even give this family the thought of my forefather's oweing them something...everything I have I have earned it myself and not looking back and grieving for something that should..Believe me I know what torture is, nad grieving is..I am sorry about what happended to indians..but I can't change that, Alaska has given there people land and what did they do..sell it..So then what is it that they want..?? I don't have it?? Anyone??
