The Lesson

I liked the way that this story went. I think that Miss Moore was only trying to teach them that there are people out there who have money and blow it on things they shouldn't, while there are people out there who can barely afford to eat. I mean she is well educated compared to the children obviously, but take children to show them something like that and not the parents. Unless she is trying to capture their thoughts of behavior before they get older and they already have a set way at doing something. Miss Moore is someone the kids never liked nor did they really want to speak to her, but after the trip she took them on to the White Folks part of town, they all spoke to her in a civil manner for the most part. I just don't understand myself as to why she took the young kids to a store where they wanted everything they saw but knew they couldn't have anything there.
