[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you did an excellent job of describing the subtle details of the MC/UMC western Euro family! [/quote] When I lived in Orlando, I saw this a lot. A little bit of an off shoot from Miami’s international connections, you see many families from Spain, Japan, Russia, England, etc. Not as tourists, but living there for a few years. Always, always brand new shoes. I’d be wearing 6mo old shoes that still felt new and clean to me. No, they are not doing that. *The English dads, always overweight.[/quote] I think I figured it out. These are UC families. The difference is In the US, upper class families wall themselves in more. You don’t see them out. Not at rolled ice cream shop, getting ice cream together. Only at higher end malls, restaurants, country clubs, or .. again, just a private residences. Upper class foreign families living in the US have the desire to go out and be among people. You’ll see them sitting outdoors or having a picnic by the soccer/park area. MC foreign families visiting don’t stand out, look more American MC. [/quote] say more about this[/quote]
