[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem is that it’s a rich get richer phenomenon. Kids growing up with privilege are already far ahead of those without even before the pandemic. The opportunity to set up pods means that those kids will get even further ahead. There’s no easy solution to this as we’re in a society that promotes individual good rather than collective. But know in doing so you are furthering inequity. That’s the point [/quote]

You know that's the point right? when running a race and the other person falls down.... That is your chance to put some distance between you and the person on the ground. And for the record it is often the slowest among us who fall, fail and protest and always has been as accountability is a tough pill to stomach and impossible to wash down if you thing fairness is real or something dwelled on by the people on the podium. I might help you up at a trail or scrimmage but you're nuts if you think it will happen at states.  I want my kid to be widely successful, he is going to have to crush your kids dreams at some point or fail/under-perform him slef.  Successes is generationally accumulative, if I am able to help more than you that is sort of settled business at this point and nothing will change in the short term. What we are really talking about is the momentum for your kid's kids and i encourage you to keep hustling but i warn you the arch of justice is never quick enough for the pain of today.  [/quote]

Your kids are competing against poor kids and hoping they fail so they can look good by comparison? How sad.

We feel benevolent towards poor kids. We don’t compete against them.[/quote]
