[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle class TV families from the 80s/90s would be recategorized as UMC families in 2021.  Families Ties, Who’s the Boss, Growing Pains, My So Called Life, Life Goes On, Wonder Years etc.

Roseanne & Married with Children are exceptions. [/quote]

But they were not presented to us as UMC in the 1980s and 1990s.[/quote]
Were your parents doctors, lawyers, architects, small business owners, etc?

I think when you were younger you did not catch the distinction. You just saw them as families like yours. But they weren't.[/quote]

Yes. They were. [/quote]
I was UMC (CFO and SAHM, one of those DC privates that no one on DCUM stops talking about) and no one I was friends with had a live-in housekeeper like Angela did. [/quote]

She was a single mother, she needed someone else.  If everyone one you knew had two parents, one SAH, they wouldn't need it.  I had a friend who had a live in because her dad was a single father.  UMC, private schools, all of that.  [/quote]
