Netizens Reaction
A user complimented the woman and shared her situation and why she can’t do so, “You have clearly raised an empathetic, aware young man with a good heart. So nice that his new friend accepts the lunches, too. I’ve been too poor to afford school food and know how shameful it feels, even if it’s not our fault. Good job, mama.” Replying to her Antonia commented, “I’m sorry you’ve experienced this too and the shame that goes with it, even though, as you say it’s not your fault.”
