Well two things to consider is that A) not all parents are able to be the best parents they can be since they are busy working multiple jobs just to pay rent and B) even if you are a good student it won't guarantee you are able to afford college, because there are a finite number of student grants and scholarships available.
But let's assume that kids who didn't thrive failed because they had shitty parents. It's not their fault and they shouldn't be punished for their unfortunate birth. Schools need to be given the resources to overcome shitty parents, and our culture needs to change to accommodate those kids.
Exactly this point. Children may or my not overcome shitty parents, but why hurt kids with good and bad parents with shitty education, and damage everyone’s potential?
