When I hear people tell black people 'You sound white' it just makes me facepalm. It's like acting educated at all is a 'white person' thing. It's incredibly weird to me.
I'm black. Growing up I primarily lived with my grandmother. We did not have a whole lot when compared to the other kids, but, one thing we did have in my house were STANDARDS. I can remember being in the 6th grade and a friend of mine coming over. We remained outside in my front yard talking and laughing… Because I was so used to it, I did not pay much attention to the amount of profanity he used. So, once he left and I went back inside, my grandmother came to me and calmly said, "Don't let that boy come back to my house. All he does is curse." That taught me real quick, there were certain things that were not going to be tolerated in my home and ANYTHING does NOT go!!! I am now 40 years old. I am a college educated graduate , homeowner , and I have a career. Many of my friends and family members that were given "everything" and had far more laxed standards than I had in my house have done far less with their lives . There seems to be a huge correlation in how parents can destroy their children with a lack of standards and structure.
