Yeah, I kind of can, too.

I'm certainly not going to DEPRIVE my daughter of enrichment as a means of 'narrowing the gap,' but at the same time, I know darned good and well that my lifetime earning potential was stunted significantly by the limitations imposed by my SES in childhood.

It bothers me also that some of those kids who won't get the chance to become neurologists or physicists or college professors would have been a lot BETTER at those things than the slightly less able, but ideally advantaged kids who will grab those openings instead.

We don't have so much talent that we ought to be throwing it away. frown
