A lot of us southsiders grew up in the middle of the element and did just fine..
We went to the same schools with the same teachers.
Played at the same parks and sometimes hung out together..
We were essentially living in the same poverty..
The only difference is the household..
The black people who's doing alright out here grew up around these same people..
Thats just more proof that parenting can over come this poverty issue..
Explain this "household" difference breh. Because if it's what I think it is I really want you to realize you are speaking in terms of a vacuum. I know plenty of examples where 2 people came out of the same household and turned out completely different. At some point people have to realize a lot of kids make their own decisions regardless as to impact their parents may make or not. I know people that came from the worst of circumstances and became successful, and people that came from a stable two parent household and was the worst of the worst.
