I asked this question before and got 99% Falses.
Before you answer considor this. A kid from the ghetto has an equal chance of "making it" as a kid from the rich subburbs? Now I know the occassional kids from the ghetto make it out and the occasional rich kids fall from grace but on average would you agree that where you end up depends greatly on where you start from?
I started off in a pretty crappy situation but I used the Army to pay for my college, send me around the world, and put money in my pocket. So in a lot of ways the Army has made up for poor circumstances and bad parents. But what if I was colorblind and couldnt join the Army?
Where is the oppertunity then? What about the statistics that children from single parent families are MUCH more likely to be abused and become single parents themselves.
….im not asking for your opinion on this so much as your acceptance of the fact that where you come from DOES HUGELY impact where you end up.
KIDS FROM THE GHETTO. KIDS FROM THE SUBRUBS! YOURE TELLING ME THEY HAVE AN EQUAL CHANCE!?!?!
you guys are always using the extreme examples. im talking about the average.
I agree with that Gales Baby Boo.
nature vs nurture
