[quote=Anonymous]If a kid can totally immerse in another culture for an extended period of time, and witness first-hand that people can be quite happy with few material possessions and a strong sense of family/community, the life lesson to be learned is huge. Living in the DC bubble teaches them that happiness in life is determined by how much money you make, whether you have a prestigious diploma and/or a high status job, and how nice is your house, car, vacation home, etc. Once you are exposed to a different outlook on life, it can help you see that there are many paths to happiness.[/quote]
