Upbringing of children in today's world

The upbringing of children differences from culture to culture and from family to family. In  western societies we can see a tendency towards a few kids in a family (usually 1 or 2) while in other cultures 4 - 5 children in a family is something normal. It is said that is hard to provide a proper upbringing for 1 or 2 kids by providing them with everything they need, here a good education is included. In western societies getting a good a education could be very expensive and many families do not afford having their children sent to top universities. Even so those who chose to go to universities can do it by contracting a loan that they will have to pay after graduation which won't be ease.. This is one of the reasons why these families don't have more children. 

But let's start from begging.   How some educate their children since they are very young. Modern and reach families start by teaching them foreign languages and good general knowledge. As they become older they start to work for the family business starting from the bottom to give them a taste o the real world. In other families children are left on their own being given the basic help they need to survive (housing, clothes and low level education), this could be because of the material situation of the family or level of culture and is up to them to realize what they have to do and not giving up when is hard.   

In my opinion is easier if you get a good start in liver (this is is influenced by the family you are born is) but if you are a very ambitious and conscious person you can succeed in almost any given situation (of course many factors can affect this saying).
