I sat and read through a UK news piece. Topic? Teachers now involved in washing student's school uniforms...because the kids (really their parents) are not paying attention to demonstrated poor hygiene.
Translation? I sat and tried to get this understanding. The article didn't really get into 'juicy' details. I generally assume....the kid has just one single uniform (because of cost) and the family doesn't wash clothing that much (maybe once a week).
So this story leads around to schools installing washing machines (no idea how you'd detail this for budget requirements)....then teachers involved in the art of washing clothing.
All of this...circling around poor hygiene? Yeah, smelly kids.
See....they didn't say all kids...just some kids....in some schools.
The belief with the teachers is that if you had a stinky smell....you probably are more isolated from your school-buddies. I can agree with this....but just left wondering....what's the stink-level of the kid's room in the house?
A German would look at this conversation and just start wondering.....how far into the 3rd world are things getting.
