In today's modern success driven society, a person's IQ or intelligence is often use as a gauge of their status. A person with high IQ is usually well regarded in the family and in society unlike someone with low IQ who may struggle to gain acceptance in society. Jobs are hard to find for a person with low IQ and even if they find a job it may be a daily struggle to survive.
In the movie Forest Gump, the plight of a low IQ person is highlighted. Forest is born with low IQ and his mother has to please the principal in order for him to remain in school. Forest was conscripted for the Vietnam war when he heroically save a fellow black American soldier and was given a Medal of Honour. When he returns to America he finds many of his ex-army buddy struggling to survive. Forest, with the help of his ex-army buddy started a shrimp business and also invested in a business called Apple which eventually succeeded. However, love life for low IQ Forest is miserable. His one and only love Jenny reunite with him after turning him down many times. But she eventually die due to illness. Forest was left to face the world alone but with great wealth.
An intelligent person is often portray in the media as a role model for other people to follow. In contrast low intelligent (IQ) person is seldom in the spotlight and society in general do not treat them with high regards. They may not have access to high paying jobs and may struggle to look for a partner or soul mate. The class divide between high IQ and low IQ may act as a barrier for a low IQ person to lead a successful life.
Despite obstacles, people with low IQ should still hold their head high. With honesty and hard work a low IQ person may succeed in life just like Forest Gump even though it may be a tough struggle in today's urban jungle.
