[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey Debbie Downer, her father is a fed and her mother is a congressional staffer! Not exactly uber-rich, especially by DCUM standards.

"Her father, Christian Holmes IV, has devoted most of his life to public-minded government service–disaster relief in Africa, international development projects in China, environmental work in this country–and is currently the global water coordinator for the U.S. Agency for International Development. He met Elizabeth’s mother, Noel, on Capitol Hill, where she worked as a congressional committee staffer."[/quote]

Since I am a fed myself, I know that I am indeed more affluent than the majority of people in this country.  My spouse and I make a good salary in a job that requires normal 9-5 hours, plus I am highly educated and my parents had enough money to give me a large down payment on a house in a good school district.  So I have the savvy, time, and money, that if I had a gifted child, I would be able to summon the resources to help her or him as much as needed.  Now would someone else, who worked long hours or shift work or was barely making ends meet in a bad school district, would that person be able to give the best to their gifted child?  I don't know.[/quote]
