[quote=Anonymous]I’ve lived in a few affluent towns and cities. It’s pretty much the same everywhere if you’re living amongst white UMC people. A focus on academics, sports and travel is not unique to DC. At all. Everyone I have lived people claim it is unique in this way. It’s the only place in America where moms throw extravagant birthday parties, weddings are expensive, kids wear designer clothing etc. There also is the belief that this place has the worst traffic compared to anywhere else. Newsflash: traffic is bad in every densely populated part of the country. Go live in a poverty stricken part DC and no one is going to bother you about your kid’s camp or college admissions. Go live in an expensive neighborhood in Denver, CO and they will. Striving for a better life is very American and is common in any prosperous place where parents have benefited from it. [/quote]
