What People Assume About You When You Grew Up Privileged

You’re blind to real world problems
Here’s what I’ll say to that: I would never dare declare that I fully comprehend the horrors that go on in this world. But…can anyone? I try to stay informed. I also try to do my part when I can. But I don’t believe any one group—wealthy or poor—is, for example, completely aware of the terrors of things like child labor or sex trafficking. We know these things exist, but the only ones who know the true horror of it are the victims. As for the rest of us who just read about it or hear about it on the news, we’re all equally removed, regardless of our income.
