[quote=Anonymous]You are where you are because your forebearers thought it was rigged too. Stop making excuses and modeling loser behavior for your kid. A whole generation (maybe two?) is growing up to think that everything is rigged. Compared to what? Were there no differences or barriers thirty or forty years ago? No disadvantages? No Vietnam for kids who could not go to college? No discrimination against women or Blacks or Hispanics in admissions or the workplace? How dumb can all of you be to buy this kind of claptrap? Being first-generation is a huge advantage in admissions. Most kids I see going to Ivies and MIT/Cal Tech are not children of wealth, and most kids who destroy Ivy grads in professional school generally come from modest means. There has never been a better time to have kids from modest means with a shot to do what they want. Get over this crap and stop kvetching. [/quote]
