[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why have people romanticized the poor so much? I grew up with teen parents, food from the food bank, sleeping on a mattress in the front room, bathing in the kitchen sink, parents then divorced, etc. Often the poor choices made by these parents in their own lives translate into bad parenting. [b]More resources will not change that. [/b] I wish society would develop the will to "break the cycle". We are not doing kids any favors by leaving them in these situations.[/quote] Why wouldn't more resources change that? It stands to reason that a given person is a better parent if they don't have to worry about where the next meal is coming from and whether they'll have a roof over their head next week than if they do.[/quote]
