Courtney was rushing to the school where her son was learning swordsmanship and luckily she quickly found him among the gathered children. The boy steadily approached the car. On the way home, her mother asked her about her daily routine. The boy says everything is fine except he is hungry and wants to go to McDonald’s.
The mother was worried and asked if they had lunch at school. But the boy said he was really hungry. He didn’t eat at all because I had to give Aiden my food because he was hungry. He was his classmate and he didn’t want anyone to know that he had helped him. The mother said everyone has their share of lunch, why did they do such a thing.
Courtney was happy to know that her son had been kind enough to help a classmate in need, but she wondered what the problem was. When he got home that day, he called Peter’s teacher for information about the child. The teacher said that the child’s family had financial problems and his parents were divorced.
This woman asked the teacher to arrange a meeting with the other parents. The meeting took place and the woman gave a very touching speech. The mother said if so, the boy should help that child. This guy’s family is going through a financial crisis and he can’t even afford to feed himself. It was terrible. The child does not eat when food is a necessity.
Waits for classmates to leave the dining room after eating so they can feed themselves. And he hides them and eats them so that the other children don’t laugh at him. The parents began to investigate and wonder who this child was. The woman said she only asks to collect money in a dignified way to help the child.
So Courtney pulled out a hundred dollars and put it on the table. The whole room was silent. But soon after, a round of applause broke out and the parents began placing money on the table, one by one. A few parents left the room without donating, but that’s okay because they were able to raise money that will cover Aiden’s meal costs for the rest of the school year.
At the end of the meeting, Aiden’s mother approached her and thanked her for her help. She admitted that she felt bad about the incident and knew what was going on, but could not afford to help her child. Thus, thanks to this woman, this poor child could already have lunch with his classmates and live his life to the full.
