I have known people who came from terrible backgrounds with loser parents who succeeded in life.
I have also known children of privilege who turned out to be losers.
Our education system should be set up to give everyone an equal chance and let them compete on equal ground to see who is really the best. It should not be about picking children of privilege and giving them even MORE advantage over the lower classes BEFORE they even step into a school.
Yes we all know people who exceed expectations. But unfortunately that's the exception rather than the rule.
And I feel I need to ask you.... Do you think privileged means more money? Or just active and supportive parents? I place the value on active parents which is what I am advocating.... For some reason I get the feeling that you are hearing only parents with money. I have not spoken about money because to me it doesn't matter. Active parents or support system does.
