Natalie couldn't help but thinking that the boy in the poem is a really stupid one. Even though she isn't American, she knew that 'quarters' must mean a quarter of a dollar, and the boy traded a dollar with half a dollar. The amount kept decreasing and decreasing until there are only 5 pennies that remain. And the boy thought that his father was proud at him. It is either the boy is very young, or he's just that ignorant.

She raised her hand and answered. "I think this shows how ignorant some people are of money, and for not knowing what a quarter or a penny is. I'm pretty sure that people would know, or at least ask if they don't. The boy is acting as if he know everything, he assumes everything and he thinks that he's right about everything. It's either that or he's just really young and he is very, very gullible."

Nat is starting to hope that her answer wasn't too long, because all of the other's seem to be very short. Then again, she has the tendency to talk too much, so she just sat there, trying to be as silent as possible.
