It seems like white kids are coddled more. When I was growing up some of my friends who were white didn't have to cook or clean or do stuff for themselves. My friends who were mixed or whatever had to do chores and basic stuff like setting an alarm to wake your own ass up out of bed. Some of my white friends had to do this as well, but I can't think of any non-white friends I had who couldn't use a microwave or go to the corner store in gradeschool, or take the public bus or subway to middle school, or do other age-appropriate things. Now I am not fully white but I look white and was raised in a home with both white people and people who were raised in turn by white people, so I think of myself as culturally white... but it seems like the white culture is one where mom wakes you up and makes your lunch and drives you to school and does your laundry and everything other than wiping your ass even when you're double digit aged. No wonder these kids go to college and can't do anything for themselves.
