[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Rich and successful parents have the ability to put a lot of scaffolding around their mediocre and lower to middle intellect children to ensure that they are at least somewhat successful. [/b] If born to poor parents in Appalachia or Compton these kids would be flipping burgers. But born to prominent or even UMC parents in SF, DC, NYC, Boston, they are shepherded through primary and secondary education with tutors, counselors, accommodations for “learning disabilities”, and coaches. They then secure comfortable if not prestigious careers due to their parent’s social and professional networks. I see it all of the time. [/quote] Yes, there are entire schools built around these very wealthy loser kids. Dumb White Idiots Getting High Together didn't come from nowhere. But private![/quote]
