You see, I would argue that Riley is a metaphor for all kids, and I think dropping out of school comes in many different forms -- to the senior who's checked out before the year's even begun or that empty desk in the back of an urban middle school's classroom.
其实，我在用Rildy来喻指所有的孩子。 我知道，辍学会以各种形式出现—— 比如高中学生还没开学就辍学了， 或者市区中学教室里后排空着的课桌。
