Law and order and goldfish

Finally, a humble story of law and order. In the corner of any given elementary school classroom, there's usually an animal of some kind – a hamster, or a hermit crab – to teach the kids about loving and caring for other species. In Jennifer Kim's elementary school classroom, there was a goldfish tank. And, in trying to teach her kids to care for another species, Jennifer discovered something about taking care of a species that was entirely foreign to her – children.
