[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t agree with the culture of running ragged so your kid can get on the best soccer team and into an ivy, and it seems our culture is maybe realizing that helicopter mom isn’t good for kids. But I grew up in a low income neighborhood and what you’re describing is how most of those kids grow up - parents who only do something if it’s something they want to do. Not a lot of selflessness in the poor corners of America. You may not be in a trailer park, but you’re raising your kids like them. And spoiler alert, they don’t turn out great. [/quote] Um, might there be any other reasons that the kids from trailer park don't turn out great? Just asking. [/quote] I don’t know what you’re inferring? Are you racist or something? Absent parents/parents who don’t involve themselves in their kids lives on a daily - hourly - basis, is the biggest differentiator. If you’re poor or black but have active parental involvement your chances of success are high, which is a pretty known statistic. [/quote]
