I choose this article because is really important to know everything that have to do with our future generations. We all know that our kids are going to be the future. It is very important to be aware as a parents what to do to make their lives successful. After I read the article I realize that are many factors that are not helping poor kids to achieve upward mobility. Its shocking to know that in a country like US instead to be increasing the opportunities for new generations are decreasing. I agree with the author of the book "Our Kids the American Dream in Crisis" in his opinion that education, and family structure plays an important role in our kids regardless economic status. Education is fundamental for any person who want to be successful. In his book Putman say that historically schools " somehow leveled the playing filed of opportunity. Also he mentioned that family structure have an impact in our children. Based on a recent study we can see that many poor kids only have either their father or mother. In the other hand rich kids have both in the most of the cases. In my opinion, I dont think this situations is going to change. Everyday its getting tough for the lower class income. Rich people are getting richer and poor people are getting poorest.
