I do’nt knew about these stastitics, I lerned real good in scool.
I learned like a fox.
I take exception to that Mr Fox,
This is not a laughing matter it is very sad.
the reason Clara is full of uneducated people is
1 Poor school / no guidance
2 No education about drug and alcohol abuse
3 No facilities for the youth
