[quote=Anonymous]I have plantar fasciitis, and not wearing shoes is painful to me. I also have a four-year-old who loves to vacuum, so it works out. The thing is, in America, shoes are a sign of formality. My parents (my mother especially) would be very unhappy if we weren't wearing shoes when company came over. To her, wearing shoes is a sign of deference. Yes, guests may track dirt into the house. But to her, it's a host's job to clean -- she wouldn't ask guest to take their plates out to the kitchen or to wipe down the bathroom sink. [/quote]
