What a load of horseshite. No one actually goes forth with such a mindset. He's seeing people trying to teach their kids how to be successful in life (study, make good grades, try to stay out of trouble, getting them involved in activities to help keep them from getting in trouble, get an education in a field that pays worth a damn, etc) and trying to turn it into purposeful classism.

I wonder... does he live in a ghetto? Did he send his kids to an under-performing school? I highly doubt it.

Yep.

How dare successful parents impart their habits upon their children.

Don't they know they're supposed to make sure their children learn no more from them than they would from the biggest idiots among us?
