What about the future life of the 14 children in the British documentary "Seven Years of Life"?

There is a well-known documentary in the UK, Seven Years of Life, which tracks 14 7-year-olds from different classes in the UK until they grow up.

Some of these 14 children come from rich families and some from poor families, and the starting line is different, but what is the fate of adulthood? It turns out that the children of rich families eventually become rich, and the children of poor families still become poor.

This is actually a manifestation of the solidification of British social classes. Because of their different vision, different patterns, rich resources, and wider contacts, the children of the rich people enjoy naturally better treatment and benefits, and they have more opportunities and conditions to enter prestigious universities.

The thinking of poor children has been solidified, thinking that this is the reality, we Chinese the so-called "reading to change fate", "cold doors can also produce noble children", but in britain has become a joke. British children from low-level families seem to lack the motivation to change their destiny when they grow up, and their parents actually let it go, and there is not much opinion on letting their children continue to stay at the bottom in free range.

People at the bottom do not have much to strive for, some even get by, satisfied with the status quo, and some think that being at the bottom is a very happy thing. This is related to the western thinking, the British pursue freedom and romance, even if they live at the bottom, parents and children advocate freedom, timely fun, enjoy the present, do not want to be tired of life, there is no more pursuit of life.

There is a young man named Nick in the documentary, who is the only example of a successful counterattack by the poor. Nick grew up poor, but was interested in science, but fortunately he met a good teacher who encouraged him to pursue a career in science. Nick studied harder and harder, successfully admitted to a famous university in the United Kingdom, and became a university teacher.

Therefore, people's fate can still be changed, the initiative lies in themselves, do not be affected by inherent concepts, and the cold door can also be noble.
