So the parents are drug addicts? 
 I have recently come across research that indicates that it is the lack of pre-schooling. 
 A good pre-school program was found to vastly benefit the poor kids, (as it also benefits the wealthy kids) 
 Poor parents are not anti-school or against the kids getting educated, and they do not practice child abuse, but poverty does affect children. 
 That having being said, why does a wealthy school have bells and whistles? In your opinion, are they unnecessary? [/quote]

Another poster commented that Head Start helps.  It does.  But, the gains don't last (according to studies).  That is because of the home environment.

And, certainly all the parents are not drug addicts--but drugs, alcohol abuse, and marijuana all play a strong part in the problems.  You can deny it if you like, but, it is absolutely a serious, serious problem among the poor--and not just the poor.  It has a great impact on children.  That is a fact.
