[quote=Anonymous]Do we really have to pretend that a lot of antisocial and unhealthy behavior statistically accompanies poverty? It’s not about being Latino, it’s about the poverty. I live in an area with very poor white families. The frequent issues I see that I don’t want my preschooler exposed to are: - watching totally inappropriate/scary media for children - extremely unhealthy eating habits and food - casual abuse and violence. Parents screaming at kids and hitting them in public, using verbal insults to kids, adults screaming at each other, and just much more harsh language than I’m comfortable with I refuse to pretend these issues aren’t more common in lower income people, in general. I don’t think exposure to these behaviors benefit kids at all.[/quote]
