[quote=Anonymous]Yes, in some ways I did marry outside of my social class. My father is an engineer, his parents were college educated. My mother is the child of of an engineer, my grandmother had a degree in accounting. She was an only child and came from money and went to university when women did not even have the right to vote. I found out my other grandmother was the grandchild of a school principal. There just are no not-college educated people in my family. My father must have been the black sheep of the entire clan. He ended up as an alchoholic. I did get to college even though I had to pay my own way etc and in some ways missed out on a lot. So my marriage to a man in whose family nobody has had education has worked out well. Somehow they manage, but I do not want that for my children. Now that I see the difference in how his family copes and how it is for my extended relatives[/quote]
