Being poor is not something you can tell someone, you need to live it to experience the horror, you are despised and disrespected for something you had no control over
- mrguyorama 8y ago>something you had no control over A significant contingent of the population does not believe that to be true.
- ythn 8y agoSome control over* To say poor people have no control is to say they don't have free agency. They are definitely disadvantaged, but not without some control.
- moate 8y agoThis article is specifically discussing brain development in children age 0-3 from families living under the poverty line. Babies cannot control their circumstances, nor do they have any free agency. They are entirely without any control.

- mrguyorama 8y agoAye, I do not agree with that idea
- s73v3r_ 8y agoI think that's covered in the "despised and disrespected" part.
