A student does not finish classwork, does not finish homework, does not pay attention in class, and doesn't really contribute to their education. His/Her teacher is really trying to help them and his/her parents have to continuously remind them to step up. According to research this student will most likely not graduate from high school and will not be prepared to some day attend a university. As a result, this student will most likely find a low wage job and mostly likely join the many other Americans in poverty....
So my question to you is, "Whose fault is this?" "Does someone deserve poverty?"
I think that its is every ones fault, us "normal" people can do more things to help, the victims can try looking for better jobs, the goverment should stop wasting money on sending troops to iraq and help the poor people

I don't think anyone deserves poverty, but it is also their fault when they already know that if they don't do good in school, they'll end up poor. Poverty is somethig that we can't change, but it is something that we can try to avoid.
i think that its the kids fault because he or she is not putting enough effort on it

I think it's the student's fault that he/she does not pay attention in class and take the opportunities given to him. He/she should really pull himself/herself together to be more successful in life and to move out of the cycle of poverty. NO ONE deserves poverty. I don't think anyone should struggle because of money, no matter how bad the person is. In the case of the student slacking off in class, he still does not deserve poverty because everyone should have the chance to try again and sort of restart.

The student has all the fault for not wanting to contribute to his education.
Noone deserves poverty.
To some, poverty is brought to them by an unexpected event.
Others chose poverty with out even realizing, sush as this kid. He chose poverty by not working hard at school to obtain a better future.
Because our future can torture us or enrapture us, and such simple desicions as to work hard at school determine wat will it become of us
I believe no body deserves to be in the state of poverty but when it come to the point where the people who are in poverty are not taking advantage of their chance of having a good career they pretty much do belong in the category of poverty , lots of people would love to go back to school to get better grades . Education is really the start of your life and where you going to end . Sometimes it really happens randomly , you may have a great education and a great job but the economy just might eat you up . No matter what i don't think anyone belongs in such positions such as poverty .

i beblieve its society's fault. theres a reason why the kid doesnt want to learn. maybe the kid has diferent way to learn instead of being aproximily 8 hrs. sitting in a classroom. who even said class has to be tought in a room? why not outside? he doesnt deserve to be poor. he deserves to be taught school in way he likes it. if he doesnt want to contribue to academics after that given chance, then i belive he deserves to be poor or in a low wage class.

The child who has not put in the effort is at fault for his/her own poverty. If the student was working hard and was still in poverty it would have been at the fault of the society for setting up winners and losers. :) Nobody deserves poverty, but it will happen to those who don't try in his/her education......

I think no one deserves poverty because everyone should deserve a second chance, but it will happen for those who don't try or put in the effort like when someone loses their job they were either not working hard or were unfortunate.

Honestly? The goverment. The goverment sees these things happening, they see people suffering, dying. Because of poverty, I don't think it's the people's fault, but the authority that has to come over them. If a student chooses to not push themselves, they may not see the seriousness in taking a serious role in school. But, if a high school student wants to learn, graduates, but can not afford to go to college, even with a loan or scholarship AND GOOD GRADES. IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT. NOBODY DESERVES POVERTY! YOUNG OR OLD!
