[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that game is pretty much the worst way the author could have illustrated the issue, assuming his goal was to get people not just aware of it, but actually engaged in addressing it. All he's done is tell a bunch of people that yeah, they're privileged, but you'd better not do anything to address the inequality or you're setting your child up for failure. I donate to my alma mater every year, in part because I'm aware of the impact long-term commitment to the school (even if you're not the top donor) by alums can have on admissions for their children. Every year, though, I direct that my donation be used to fund scholarships in order to help other kids who don't have the advantages mine do. There is a middle ground between ruthlessly promoting your own child at the expense of others and refusing to help them at all.[/quote] Very well said. The game really irked me, because it seems counter-productive.[/quote]
