진한 검은색으로 표시된 한줄만 문맥에 맞게 봐주시면 감사하겠습니다ㅠ

 

Any parent wants to believe that she is making a big difference in the kind of person her child turns out to be.

Otherwise why bother?

 

The belief in parental power is manifest in the first official act a parent commits: giving the baby name.

(전개상 의미 없는 내용 생략)

Many parents seem to believe that a child cannot prosper unless it is hitched to the right name; names are seen to carry great aesthetic or even

predictive powers.

 

This might explain why, in 1958, a New York City man named Robert Lane decided to call this baby son Winner.

Robert Lane apprently had a special feeling about this one. Winner Lane: how could he fail with a name like that ?

 

이 내용의 전반적인 흐름이, 이름에 상징적인 의미들을 부여함으로써 아이가 앞으로 성장하는데 큰 도움이 된다고 믿는 내용인것 같은데,

마지막줄 fail ? 단어뜻 알면서도 뭔소린지 못알아 듣겠는데.. 해석좀 부탁드릴게요 감사합니다 .ㅠ
