Author Rob Henderson discusses his experience growing up in the foster care system and the “massive disconnect” between the elites and everyone else. Mr Henderson is the author of ‘Troubled’, which delves into his life in foster care. “I don’t know who coined this phrase, but it captures it quite nicely that what I call the luxury belief class – they walk the 50s and talk the 60s,” he told Sky News host James Morrow. “They abide by conventional bourgeois norms – if you look at who’s the most likely to get married, the least likely to get divorced, the most likely to work hard in their personal lives and prioritise education. “These are people with college degrees who are upper middle class. “But then if you ask people about their opinions about the importance of marriage, 75 per cent of people with college degrees say it’s not important if you have a child that the child should be raised by two married parents.”
