My friend Kay, whom I’ve never met except on-line, writes about her niece and nephew:
“We're heading off to Iowa for two college graduation celebrations! Both graduations are examples of choices and responsibilities exhibited by the graduates . . . both walking away debt free, one heading off to a job after finishing her master's degree, the other going on to a 4-year program of his choice, both free of government mandates. Our daughter had that same experience. I guess that makes all of them (and us) not part of the 99%, even though they are not the 1%...where does that put them? Where is the news about individuals like these young adults?”
Where indeed, except in special stories and remembrances of families and friends who know what our young people are made of.
