[quote=Anonymous]What does it mean that kids are too “Virginian” a how does it differ from the dominant culture of largely suburban and UMC kids from other parts of this country? We moved to NoVA from the Midwest when the kids were little and this is all they’ve ever known. It does feel a little bit like there is maybe a dominant shared experience here that shapes kids, but I can’t put my finger on it. What is it, exactly? I remember talking to another transplant familiar with NoVA, and I was telling them about our kids’ activities and he commented on how we are totally living the NoVA life. My kids do well in school, are social, and sports are a big part of their lives. But that is the dominant culture pretty much everywhere with college-bound kids. [/quote]
