[quote=Anonymous]I appreciate you thinking about this…but it’s going to be very difficult for you to do this in a meaningful way given your life set up. The true growth and understanding you are seeking is dependent on lived experiences (visiting your origins is an excellent introduction) and ongoing exposure (harder). I grew up middle class/bordering lower middle class, went to public schools, etc. In the scheme of life I was privileged but did not start to understand it until I spent three month working in a very low income Central American country one summer in college. Just keep having the conversation, seize opportunities, and 100% agree on requiring working as teens (my rising 9th grader lined up a summer job and understands this is the expectation moving forward).[/quote]
