The ultimate decision should be voted on by the parents/guardians etc
because it's their kids and they're gonna be the ones not getting a break regardless
ppl wanna "take a break" but if the mortgage/rent/ bills are due
their parents can't decide to take a break from paying with no contributions
from a 18+ year old adult
yh but how many of these families actually depend on their children to pay the bills though

DVDDY.

Hopefully, they provide better counselors and teachers that can help the children. High school to college was the toughest time for me because of all the pressure from everyone. Glad I took a gap year to figure it out.

Opposites Attract.

Unemployment is usually caused by there not being enough jobs rather than the kids taking a siesta but do.


It's unconditional, these days you know....

Also, the kids going to college is more likely to be a heavier financial burden on the parents than them "taking a break".
This isn't a logical argument.

Take a look at this before you guys continue to question this decision:

https://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20170523/englewood/state-black-unemployment-tied-for-worst-nation-report-says

I already knew this would be the case based on this new rule, but I wanted to double check Google. And sure enough...

You probably should read this

http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20170428/BLOGS02/170429849/emanuel-cps-will-complete-full-term-through-june-20

It highlights how the school system here has been fighting with the govenor and state to get their needs met.

Chicago public schools have lost millions of dollars in funding for years. Dozens of schools have closed in the short timespan that Ive been here. Where do you think most of these schools are? They're not in the white neighborhoods?

https://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/chicago-politics-segregation-african-american-black-white-hispanic-latino-population-census-community/Content?oid=3221712

this highlights food desserts and a overall lack of resources in these same areas. You can search englewood and see that it is one of the most resource lacking environments in the city.

Another Black community btw.

Now, add all of these factors into a nice cocktail. Poverty, no resources, schools are being closed down in non-white communitties, folks become aggressive ( impoverished folks do statistically), gun violence and BAM!


I'd add some context to the way you all are approaching this. Yall ki about gun violence and people being hoodlums often but its a little more multifaceted than posting an article and saying this is what it is....

This definitely puts it in a better perspective for me

Because I couldn't really understand why gun violence was so massive there

But, it looks like they're literally trying to put black people OWT  :dead: or rather a certain financial class of them

IDK it would be nice if none of them were "depending"
on children to pay bills however once the "child" is 18 they should be contributing to the bills though and not depending on their parents for everything

They're trying to put Black people out of everywhere, Ton.

Well, at least anywhere whites begin to settle -- the nice word for it is gentrification.

Happened to Brooklyn, happening to the Bronx, happening to Queens. None of this is new.
Yeah but Chicago is an anomaly :guys: 

so I figured the situation wasnt black & white

no it's not if you're going to college and aren't rich there is plenty of financial aid resources, parents aren't responsible for an adults college tuition unless they have it and want to pay it
and it's not about a burden or dept as much as it's enabling an adult to be a freeloader.

!!!

They''re gentrifying these same areas. Closing their schools, raising the rent, adding a starbucks here, a whole foods there, a condo here. It's terrible.

Chicago is one of the most segregated cities in the united states with most of the black folks being on the south or west. That's the areas being dismantled and rebuilt now.

But this level of GET BLK PPL THE FCK OUT is the most extreme I've EVER seen

:guys:

Ive seen gentrification in my own city but its usually like a small block or something

Not a whole damns section of a city with schools and entire neighborhoods
