WHAT MAKES A CHILD SUCCESSFUL ,EDUCATION OR MORAL UPBRINGING.

EDUCATION

Side Score: 20
VS.

MORAL UPBRINGING

Side Score: 16

Your question is a false dichotomy, because neither answer really has anything to do with it. Money (in the family) is almost always what makes a child successful. That and good political connections (although the two usually go hand in hand anyway).

Both. A well rounded child should have both to be successful in life and career.

Side: EDUCATION

Given that most people fall on the bell curve for education and also on the bell curve for morality, what makes one child succeed over his peers with the same qualifications is pure, unadulterated, luck ;)

You would want both Education and Moral upbringing.

But someone who is very nice but stupid won't be very successful, but someone very mean but smart and educated can be successful. So i'd say Education is more important to your very specific and strange question.

Morality isn't an arbitrary thing like, "this is bad, this is wrong, etc"

Good morality has to do with loving the truth above all else. Those who love the truth above all else inevitably grow into sincere humility which allows them to be charitable towards their fellows.

I hope your good morality admits the truth of what the Democrat Party supports when it comes to No Restriction abortions. They support all abortions at any stage for any reason!

There can be no truth or moral high ground when the people claiming it support such inhumanity.

An aborted child is not a successful child, nor is an aborted child educated or capable of being brought up morally.

How many times are you going to parrot the unrestricted abortion point? Theyve been more than willing to entertain 20 week bans except when the womans life is in danger. There may be some democrats who want no restrictions but its by no means the party platform position. And certainly not the majority belief of the democratic constituency

Side: EDUCATION

Both things are important to a child's success. If we had to choose the most important, it would obviously be morals.

There are very intelligent educated criminals. They lack the moral character to distinguish between right and wrong no matter their IQ.

It takes good moral parents, teaching good moral values, to raise well adjusted children. A child's security means so much to his future. We have so many broken homes today. Children feel abandoned and worthless. They join gangs and peer groups to feel part of a family.
