[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am shocked by how many people are upset of the SAT adversity score. They do not want to admit the privileges that their children having growing up in a nice school district, safe school, etc. These are all great things! Everyone wants these things for their kids but sadly, many kids do not have access to these resources. Why are people so afraid to own that privilege and be proud of it while also working toward the same future for other kids? What are you afraid of? Honestly if you kid doesn't get into HPY and goes to say, UVA- what do you think will happen? Do you really think their future is lost? Are you afraid they will end up on the streets?

Seriously please help me understand...[/quote]

Because they don't want their kids to just have a good life, they want their kids to have it all. They want everything for their kids and don't care if that means other kids get little of nothing. [/quote]

Yes! How do you not get that the rich white kids are the real victims here?
