I chose Option 2 and completed the quiz on identifying your own privilege by way of checklist. I scored 17% on the quiz and the results suggest that I am not privileged even though I am white. I came from a middle class family but raised in working class neighborhood. My parents were raised working class and held off from doting on us kids because they didn't want us to be spoiled but what they didn't realize was that the mental disorders of my two siblings had became a very difficult burden for my family, and that that would cause my brothers to be co-dependent and a tremendous burden on my parents. I would go out of state to get a very inexpensive state college education and work full time so as to not rack up student loans. Sometimes I acknowledge my privileged moments in my upbringing but as a young adult learned that in some instances I was not privileged.
