[quote=Anonymous]My family WERE the "yokels" in the small town, and my aunt and uncle were the ones who "escaped." Thankfully, they didn't see us as inferior, didn't worry that we would rub off on their precious snowflakes and in fact brought us into their homes to see their lives. I didn't see it at the time, but in retrospect they are hugely responsible for the success I've had. They showed me how big the world was, suggested colleges I never would have heard of, and overpaid me for babysitting their kids so I could have spending money at college. You have a chance here to role model compassion for your kids, and to help their cousins have the kind of opportunities you didn't get until later. Please consider using it. [/quote]
