To those commenting on the parents lack of ability to afford only one pair of shoes...I, too, can understand the concept of not being able to afford possible having to buy another pair of shoes but my comment is this...When I look at the picture of the shoes the student from Chaney was wearing, they bear a STRIKING resemblance to the pair that my nephew wanted only 3 weeks ago. The cost... $80. I've heard kids say they won't wear anything except "jordans" or what have u. You ask, What is the school's priority? I ask...what is the parents priority?
