John Scalzi wrote an entry titled "Being Poor" https://whatever.scalzi.com/2005/09/03/being-poor/ on his Blog Whatever back in 2005 where to offered over 60 examples of what it means to be poor. Visit the entry and select 5 examples that Scalzi gave and write your reaction to those 5. Please list and number (1-5) the example and then write your reaction. Then answer the following questions:

1. As leisure professionals, why do we need to address about this barrier?
2. What would you tell your children if you could not afford to enroll them in baseball, ballet, camp, or swimming lessons?

Example 

1. Goodwill underwear – Fortunately I have never had to purchase underwear from Goodwill before. However, I am not going to lie my initial reaction was that's a little gross. As a parent, I would do anything for my children, so if that was the only way we could have clothes then so be it.
