I’m with you. Obviously wealthy children will have more advantages no matter what, but I personally grew up with one working parent (dad was a teacher with a summer job and some small side jobs) who was able to support me, my mother, and 5 siblings in a smallish US town. I was able to receive a good public education, and we had all the necessities (if nothing else – no nice vacations or fashionable clothes). It was a safe town… sports programs, extra-curriculars. Cheap homes. That one working parent was able to buy a 4-bed home, renovate the attic, add an enclosed porch, re-side and re-shingle, and pay off the mortgage while raising this family. This scenario would be entirely impossible in San Francisco and even most of the Peninsula.
