there are trade-offs to everything in life.

you obviously like the trade-offs of the decision you and your wife made for where to raise your family. and that's totally fine.

however, i don't think that i would want to live where you live, and you probably would not want to live where i live.

and that's ok.... different strokes for different folks.




children who are lucky enough to get loving, caring, attentive parents who can provide for them are robbed of nothing.

it doesn't matter if you're in the middle of manhattan or on a 5,000 acre wyoming ranch or anywhere in between.
