[quote=Anonymous]I only mean that even though there is this conservative undercurrent, it's not to the exclusion of diversity. There are kids who don't fit the norm. And they seem to do just fine. But knowing what that norm is is inescapable. It feeds into extra-curricular activities (for boys that means sports: rec soccer beginning in K, basketball in 1st grade, NWWLL baseball...you will not hear a lot of talk about piano lessons), into cars (mentioned above), into summer activities, into restaurants (the Beauvoir PTA could easily have a second home at 2 Amys or Cafe Deluxe), into politics, and into social engagements (3rd grade cotillion is almost mandatory). And nothing is really bad about that. It's just really homogenious. [/quote]
