The headline on this WSJ article -- Why Rich Parents Don't Matter -- is at odds with the reporting.
The longer version of the head that shows up in the browser tab -- How Poverty Hurts Young Children, and Why Rich Parents Don't Matter -- is somewhat more accurate, although it still understates the reported value of "rich" parents.
From the article:
