I'm throwing out the LSM LC practice of focusing on the middle class and above college students to the neglect of the poor and simple.

HERn, I appreciate a lot of the things you have posted about. It's good to see how someone has moved on beyond the LC. So many who are suck in the system see no way out. Many of those who leave might feel they have no hope left or they don't see any path forward. I'm sure that some have been in the system so long, that they couldn't envision anything else. Whatever situation that someone may be in, I think that it is important to realize that there are positive alternatives that are worthy of devoting time and energy to.
