[quote=Anonymous]I was just driving with my kids in one of the outer burbs and they were admiring the big houses and big lawns (we live in a tiny Cape on a tiny lot in Arlington) and then we got into the traffic on 66 and I said, see, you would NEVER see Mommy and Daddy if we lived out here, because we would always be driving back and forth to work, and you'd have to do morning and afternoon extended day and we'd never get to do anything fun. Which is may overstating things somewhat, but it would more than double our commutes, so it would be less time together as a family. I think they got it, a little. (They weren't super envious...just more like "look at that house! They have a swingset! Why don't we have a big yard?"[/quote]
