This week in class we have been discussing social class and how that can effect our families. We watched some you-tube videos about different people's social classes and some of the every day things that they experience. We saw extremes on both sides from the wealthiest of people to the poorest of people. I do think that our social class has a tendency to effect our family for good or for bad but i think that the biggest factor is your outlook on life and how you perceive others because of your social class. If you have all the money in the world and because of your high social class you look down upon others this can not only effect your own life but will rub off onto your children and how they perceive others in relation to how much money they have. On the other side being poor and always coveting what others have and wishing for more can negatively impact you and your children as well. I think that the best medicine for social class and allowing it to effect your family is to create humility within you, your spouse and your children. Also instill hard work as a principle in your family. I think this will help to eliminate some of the negative effects that social class can have on your family.
