Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 5356802, member: 271"] I loved living in Boston after college and still visit fairly often. It’s an amazing city. However, I’m a Catholic, suburban CT native that grew up 90 minutes away and thought childhood trips there for sporting events, historic sites, museums and aquariums were fun. I was not a Baptist or Southern Methodist 4* football player from rural South Georgia or Roanoke VA. Those kids have a much different perspective. I chose Boston over NYC at first for several reasons, one being that I liked to ski and wanted to be closer to good mountains in NH and VT. My kids are Florida natives and while they like skiing, only my son ultimately pulls the trigger on going now and then at this point. My daughters pretty much always say they only want to go to our VT house June-October these days. They hate the cold. They would all skip a religious affiliated school. They were raised Christian with a lackluster effort on our part to get them to church now and then. They did attend day camps etc at church in summer. Those were at a United Methodist church that was very breezy and open minded by Methodist standards. However, while my kids know that my whole side of the family is Catholic, I think they consider being Catholic kind of like being Jewish. It’s different than “Christian” to them. Many times I’ve heard people in the South say things like, “Oh, is Bob a Christian?” “No, I think he’s Catholic.” It’s just such a different world in the South and rural Midwest than New England, NY and NJ.
