I grew up poor and I don't understand it either. Children a century ago had a high likelihood of dying before they were 5. Now, that risk is greatly diminished

I grew up poor and I don't understand it either.
Children a century ago had a high likelihood of dying before they were 5. Now, that risk is greatly diminished.
At the same time, the standard of living has greatly increased across the board for rich and poor.
I am sorry that you had a bad childhood. Future generations of children, even the poor will have it better.

I think our misunderstanding of each other comes from having different standards of what's considered good for child and what not. > I am sorry that you had a bad childhood. Future generations of children, even the poor will have it better. I never said that I had a bad childhood.
