Are the people who grew up with their parents more successful than those who didn't?

Question

"Being poor is not an issue for both"

Answer 1

Not always.Dave Thomas the founder of the Wendy's resturaunt was adopted.

It usually does matter though.Yet if a person has 2  bad parents they are no better off than most of the kids being raised in single parent homes in the projects.

Answer 2

Satisically, the answer is yes.  Overall, children from 2 parent households tend to have more advantages in life and tend to be "successful".  However, individually, that doesn't hold true.  Much of it depends upon the quality of the parenting and the extended network involved.

Answer 3

No.

I grew up with my parents. My brother is successful, I am struggling. My brother's wife was adopted when she was a baby. She is also very successful.  I think it matters more what sort of self-worth your parents give you as you're growing up.  I had issues that my parents swept under the carpet and ignored, thus I'm a loser.  My brother and his wife who was adopted didn't have those issues. They were loved and supported and are now healthy, vibrant members of society.  It all depends on how you are treated. It has nothing to do with blood or divorce or "real" parents.

Answer 4

nope it doesnt really matter.

some people can grow up with parents and not be successful because they depend too much on their parents or expects too much from them.

but some people that grew up with both their parents can be successful too because they have their parents support and the feeling of warmth beside them and helping them to go through obstacles in life.

some people that didnt grow up with their parents can be not successful because they didnt have the support and the feeling of love beside them so they might not feel the push/energy to do well and they decide to just laze around or other stuff for their whole life.

but some people that grew up without their parents can be really successful too because without their parents they feel like even though they dont have their closet people with them now but they can work really hard and be independent. they just grow up being more independent.

Answer 5

no, it really depends on the individual... remember .."The US is a country where you choose to be poor." and that is a fact. I know that when youre a child you dont have much of a choice, but when you grow up you do..vu have to want it.

have you seen the "pursuitt of happiness".. beautiful movie..

Answer 6

Being successful depends upon the individual person.  Some people who had wonderful parents turn out to be scum. And vice versa.
