Classs and Deviance

Social class and economic class seem like two different things, but they are still affected by eachother. Social class seems to be your atidude towards the people you associate yourself with, and what your interests are. Economic class is where financially you stand in a community. There will always be a lower and a higher class of economic wealth; however, even if you are lower class and have no money, you may still have high class interests. Class plays a role in my life by controlling how I grew up. I grew up traveling all the time and my mom always giving me nice things, which has resulted in me being somewhat spoiled. There are some people who are less fortunate and sadly become socially deviant. People may have grown up learning the wrong things, which results in them being a deviance to society. Not everyone who is not of higher class is deviant; however, there is some evidence to show that those from a lower class may end up being more deviant.
