Am I crazy?

You know I try to be understanding and accepting. But............our school district mooched tons of dollars in levy from the community to build a new highschool WITH a lunchroom. It's not done yet but, we have a gorgeous gym with overhead track and 3 courts, aparently they say...there is not enough money for a lunch room. So these kids have a "community room" they can eat in.....I don't know how many it seats but it is clearly not enough because many kids have to eat on the floor in the hallways. The food is another issue all together, there is only vending machines. The 7th and 8th graders have to bring a sack or eat fom vending machine and probably sit on the floor! At 9th grade and up they usually go to McDonalds! Thats healthy!!! So I was learning to accept all this when my 10 year old brought home a letter from the lunch lady at the elementary school......please sit down if you are not. They started BIOMETRICS today instead of lunch tickets! So I send the money and they give a fingerprint, its logged, then at lunch, the give fingerprint again and they get lunch!!!!! I am speechless!
