Sometimes you learn from your kids

My son is blessed with a nice drawer full of very nice shirts but day after day kept insisting on wearing the same ratty old shirt with the school logo on it.

I know that he had school pride but the missus and I thought he was just being lazy.

When we asked him why he kept doing that, the embarrassed answer came back, "so-and-so doesn't have a dad, and his mom doesn't have much of a job so he had only a couple sets of clothes, so my friends and I don't like to show off new stuff..."
