Study the editorial cartoon by John R. Rose.

2 kids are in school. The boy talks about the things he did over the summer, including baseball practice, piano lessons, travel soccer, swim team, and so on. He is glad school started so his schedule will free up a bit.

What evidence supports the cartoonist’s perspective about expectations for children?

the happy expression on the child’s face
the message on the blackboard
the long list of activities the child gives
the books the children are carrying
