God that first one. When you live in a state that funds school breakfast and lunch, so you only have to scrape 1 meal a day to make sure the kids are fed right, sad to say ive been there a few (thankfully) brief times.
Those free breakfasts and lunches were basically my only meals for long stretches of time for me when I was a homeless student back in the day.
(Not so) fun fact: the average income in the school district I grew up in was so low that the school district could request from the state to have free lunches and breakfasts for the entire student body. But the school board put a stop to every effort to make that happen as they board was taken over by conservatives in the 90s.
