No child should be shamed for not having the money to eat breakfast and lunch at school. They need nutrition in order to function and learn effectively. They should never feel embarrassed to access the same meals as every other kid in the program. They should certainly not be sent away from the line with a lesser meal. This would only encourage them not to ask for a meal at all, if there was a chance of being embarrassed in front of their peers.
