I did a pizza party for the class that made the most improvement on a benchmark test. Paid ~$100 in my own money, tried to get everyone enough for two slices. It wasn’t the right kind of pizza, they were still hungry, I didn’t get the right soda… fuck me for not dropping that cash on a fat j instead.
Unfortunately, $100 isn’t enough to satisfy varying tastes, while also leaving out no one. Aside from that, kids didn’t recognize sacrifice, nor were most of them taught the manners to say “No, but thank you.”

Honestly, I think you probably should have known.
Then we teach them?? They’re not gonna know if we don’t be good role models for them, but doesn’t mean they can’t learn.
