Just because Bonds grew up in a family that had a father for a MLBer and more money than most people does not mean that his was any easier than anyone else's. Rich families still beat and abuse their kids and can suffer the same horrible childhood as a poor kid. The msot messed up people I know come from rich families. It's the ones from lower income families that seem the best adjusted.

You don't think Bonds' upbringing didn't make him the social ingrate that he is? If you can use Cobb's upbringing as excuse to let his horrific behaviour slide, then why doesn't Bonds' upbringing excuse him from his social ills? And don't say he had a better childhood becuase of money again again. Even you should know that's a silly argument.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.
