[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perceived prestige and materialism in this country are through the roof. It's hard to teach your bright kid how not to get sucked into the rat race when their cohort is constantly competing at the behest of their parents. No one seems to be truly happy over a considerable span of time. They achieve something, be happy for a few moments and move on to the next challenge. Not sure what the end game is for everyone? More money? So, they can save for their children's education and groom the next generation for the rat race?
I have all the respect for folks that are trying to get out of poverty and overcome hardships, but can others not be happy with what they already have? It's not a complex concept, but it's just not in the DNA of this country. The transplants like me are infected too after living here for long. I can't imagine going back with a huge pay cut. I'm disappointed in myself.
I just want all the kids to experience unconditional happiness and be resilient when things don't go as planned.[/quote]

Yeah to all this[/quote]
