Review
Framework is our staff’s most powerful resource for working with students and families to provide necessary tools and skill sets to break the crushing cycle of poverty. –Dr. Bonny Cain, Superintendent, Waco Independent School District, Texas
The beauty and power of Framework are its scope and breadth. What began as a guide for educators to better understand their students is now a multifaceted, multidisciplinary set of tools and resources that are applicable across society. The book expands the integration of relationships across all boundaries. –Gayle C. Manchin, Past President, National Association of State Boards of Education (NASBE)
The concepts from Framework were taught by Bethanie Tucker to many of our faculty and administrators last spring. Those concepts, combined with increased student services advisors and program directors, community outreach, faculty involvement and a lot of hard work, resulted in our annual attrition rate going from 6% to 4.3% last year. After all, it does take a village. –Ada Gerard, Campus President,Heald College, Rancho Cordova, CA (May, 2009)

"Indeed, the interests of the oppressors lie in ‘changing the consciousness of the oppressed, not the situation which oppresses them’, for the more the oppressed can be led to adapt to that situation, the more easily they can be dominated". (Pedagogy of the Oppressed, page 74.)
I wish, so sincerely, that I could collect every copy of this book and destroy them all. This book – and the ideology that informs it – is racist, classist, and contributes to the continued marginalization of disenfranchised groups. Having read and studied the book in a graduate teacher education program, my best summary of Payne’s philosophy is: we can fix poverty by teaching poor people to stop acting so poor and uneducated. (Biggest eye roll of all time).
Look up basically any peer-reviewed study or article written by the big voices in multicultural/social justice education. Shortcut: they’re all extremely critical of Ruby Payne’s work. Although she has a reputation with schools as being quite progressive, her work is actually doing a lot of harm. In one study, researchers found that teachers who have been exposed to Payne’s work actually are much more likely to perpetuate racism and classism in their schools.
Here’s a great article (peer-reviewed! By a qualified scholar in the field!) that helped me understand:

It also turns out that Payne’s work, unlike the work of her critics, is based on absolutely no real research – she admits that she has not engaged in any structured inquiry, that no data exist to back her theories, and that her work is based on her own casual observations.
Some people take great pains to bash this book but sometimes stereotypes are dead on accurate. I know in this politically correct universe its evil to say some stereotypes are at times reality but, I am not one to care what others think. Yes A Framework for Understanding Poverty 5th Edition does over-simplify a complex subject so it is not a truly scientific work thank goodness. A Framework for Understanding Poverty 5th Edition is not ripe with tedious graphs and ivory tower double speak and politically correct ideals that examined too closely stand for nothing.
Poverty is a mean and ugly subject no matter what the context. Urban poverty is just as ugly and depressing as rural poverty and the suffering both cause is equally debilitating.What recommends this book is that it is easy for a lay person or a qausi professional to read. There isn’t much lying in this book it calls a loser a loser. It calls a bad mother an unfit parent. A Framework for Understanding Poverty 5th Edition is a realistic pragmatic view of poverty that is useful
It would appear that some people want a scientific picture of poverty laden with endless charts, graphs and markers. Some people want a sea of big words that distill poverty down into a souless, equation when poverty is about life most foul and brutal. Poverty is about crushing unfair conditions. Poverty is about making do for yourself and your family on slave wages. Poverty is about people who have veen trained to make the wrong decisions because they have never seen how successful people comprehend and respond to the world in unique and different ways.
It is NOT just the 1% it is the professional class the people who just make $100,000 a year who have left those who suffer in poverty.
