[quote=Anonymous]It mattered the first time I was married.  My husband grew up pretty low class and I did not.  It became an issue when we had kids. I went to boarding school and wanted our son to go as well.  It became a huge issue for us.  My ex could not understand why I wanted to spend $50K on tuition.  Things like that really got in the way. I knew my older son was not ready to go to college and wanted him to do a gap year and travel.  Ex husband would have none of that.  My son lasted a semester.  I understand that even when you grow up in a lower class, you still know what to do, but it was a huge issue for us.  I am now engaged to someone who also grew up in a lower class, but was a striver.  He had something in him that made him want to be and do better.  His kids did really well.  While there are some things that I expose him to, it's not as bad and he is open.  I also don't care as much since we aren't raising kids together.  He is also great about attending all of the events, etc. that I have to go to.  He's happy to be along for the ride.[/quote]
