[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is LCM? [/quote] I think it’s a typo for LMC. We’re LMC from working class families. I see a lot of the same type of comments from relatives in my family and DH’s. However, I put a different spin on it. My MIL, in particular, knows firsthand how hard it is to do any sort of physical labor. She prides herself on her hardworking kids and grandkids even if they aren’t successful by US standards. She understands terms like “shift supervisor” better than “assistant director of outreach”, so she might be slightly more excited when the son working in a plant shared his big news. The grandmother in the OP really is as proud of the kid who bought her own car waiting tables as she is of the kid who wins a national academic competition. [/quote]
