  • The last thing I want to say is that I had a lot of good fortune in the mentors and people who have played an important role in my life.
  • 最后我还想说,我非常幸运能遇见很多很好的导师和人,他们在我生命中扮演了非常重要的角色。
  • From the Marines, from Ohio State, from Yale, from other places,
  • 在海军陆战队,在俄亥俄州,在耶鲁大学,在其他地方,
  • people have really stepped in and ensured that they filled that social capital gap that it was pretty obvious, apparently, that I had.
  • 大家都走近我,帮我填满那条社会资本的鸿沟,这条鸿沟在我身上表现得很明显。
  • That comes from good fortune, but a lot of children aren't going to have that good fortune,
  • 这是一种很大的幸运,但是很多孩子都没有这样的好运,
  • and I think that raises really important questions for all of us about how we're going to change that.
  • 这就为我们引出了非常重要的问题,那就是该如何改变这一点。
  • We need to ask questions about how we're going to give low-income kids who come from a broken home access to a loving home.
  • 我们要思考如何帮助那些低收入家庭的孩子,让他们破碎的家庭重新充满爱。
  • We need to ask questions about how we're going to teach low-income parents how to better interact with their children, with their partners.
  • 我们要思考如何教育低收入的父母同自己的孩子,同自己的爱人,更好地互动。
  • We need to ask questions about how we give social capital, mentorship to low-income kids who don't have it.
  • 我们要思考如何为贫穷的孩子提供社会资本和引导。
  • We need to think about how we teach working class children about not just hard skills, like reading, mathematics,
  • 我们要思考如何教育工人阶级的孩子,不仅仅是硬技能,比如阅读,数学,
  • but also soft skills, like conflict resolution and financial management.
  • 还有软技能,比如危机处理和理财。
  • Now, I don't have all of the answers.
  • 现在,我并没有所有这些问题的答案。
  • I don't know all of the solutions to this problem, but I do know this:
  • 我也不知该如何彻底解决这些问题,但我明确知道的是:
  • in southern Ohio right now, there's a kid who is anxiously awaiting their dad,
  • 现在,在南俄亥俄州,有孩子在焦急等待自己的父亲,
  • wondering whether, when he comes through the door, he'll walk calmly or stumble drunkly.
  • 在想着,当他走进家门的时候,是正常的还是喝得东倒西歪的。
  • There's a kid whose mom sticks a needle in her arm and passes out,
  • 有的孩子看着自己的母亲往胳膊里扎针,然后失去知觉,
  • and he doesn't know why she doesn't cook him dinner, and he goes to bed hungry that night.
  • 他不明白为什么妈妈不给自己做饭,只好饿着肚子爬上床。
  • There's a kid who has no hope for the future but desperately wants to live a better life.
  • 有的孩子对未来不抱希望,但又非常想过上更好的生活。
  • They just want somebody to show it to them.
  • 他们需要有人教他们怎么做。
  • I don't have all the answers,
  • 我没有所有的答案,
  • but I know that unless our society starts asking better questions about why I was so lucky
  • 但我知道,除非整个社会开始思考为什么我如此幸运,
  • and about how to get that luck to more of our communities and our country's children,
  • 如何让更多的社区,让更多的孩子得到这份幸运,
  • we're going to continue to have a very significant problem. Thank you.
  • 否则我们将会不断遇到非常严重的问题。谢谢大家。
