Health policy, Baltimore, *personal views*
Friendly amendments: we over label both rich and poor kids because (1) actual differentiation would require smaller class sizes and way more planning time than teachers currently have (2) parents understand that an IEP or 504 conveys some protection for their kid, even in under resourced schools

Deep empathy as this is me at every hearing where folks mix up Medicaid and Medicare.

My grandpa had a boat. If it is common in the waters off MA I've probably seen it, maybe fished for it. My grandmother used to hose him off in the driveway after he finished cleaning bluefish; he wasn't allowed inside until he bagged all his clothes and even then only thru the bulkhead to the bsmt

She is not usually a lap cat. Sometimes with the kid but not with me. Typically she prefers to be as close to you as possible without actually being on your lap.

Peter is a lap cat but only after he's torn around the house like a loon.
