[quote=Anonymous]It's nice to be middle class if you are surrounded by middle class people. My best friend is raising her kids in her hometown in Texas, which is a small city with very few objectively UMC or rich people. They have a great life and no one is looking over their shoulders. As someone who grew up middle class surrounded by UMC and rich people (through a quirk of school boundaries), I don't think it's a great way to grow up. Even if your family is confident and secure in their class status, growing up on the edge of things means you either say no to a lot or you are always stretching in the hopes of getting your kids the opportunities that their peers have. I think an ideal situation from the perspective of ease of parenting/happiness is to grow up in an economically homogenous environment.[/quote]
