[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quiet confidence, yes, but nothing signals upper class on a young child like very good manners and impulse control.[/quote] So to be clear, you think wealthy children have different brain structures compared to other children? Or might it be that the manners, clothing, etc. bias you towards overlooking behavior(s)?[/quote] My UC children have wonderful manners.... when they're not misbehaving.[/quote] Yes, that is kind of my point. The previous poster just had to add better impulse control for wealthy children, which is a bit of a stretch. All children have difficulty with impulse control (brain development) with a wide range of normal. Wealthy children dont have different brains, they just have pretty clothes and nice manners and people allow for more "negative" behavior because of that. You are primed to give them the benefit of the doubt because in our society wealthy=virtuous/right/etc. [/quote]
