Why was Roland so upset ?
Roland took the kids shopping for school supplies . He came back miserable that he had spent $ 100 . The kids wanted these fancy binders , and mechanical pencils , and Gary wanted a little white board to write his assignments on . Then he just bought erasers and notebooks and stuff .
