Huh?
I wasn't putting my parents down. I'm just stating some facts...they could not and can not help me with my academic matters.
I don't think less of them because they didn't go to school, I love them.
I was a bit upset when you seemed to imply that I don't think much of my parents. I understand that there are many different walks of life for people. People who don't go to school are equal to those who do, I understand. There are differences and we cannot assume any are good or bad, especially in the long run.
E.g. (I believe that)Intelligence may have been advantageous in an evolutionally sense in the past, but it may not be in the future...such is natural selection, there are no *good* or *bad* traits, only traits that help or hinder the passing on of genes at one moment in time.
