They sure as fuck are when it means they only have one meal a day and can’t afford to join a sport club.

Besides, the point was pretty obvious, I thought. They might not care about it directly, but their mental health is affected by it just the same. When it affects their wellbeing directly, through their access to the food they need to learn and grow. When it affects the opportunities they have in life, especially if they might see others around them who do have opportunities.

That’s without going into the fact that parents can pick up on their parents’ distress more than they often get given credit for.

Who said anything about majority? Even 1 is too many.
