    Parents… No.

    Communities (which are more than just parents). It’s a little more complicated. It’s really common to see communities celebrate a home town boy who made good.

    But are they happy that in a broader sense they aren’t good enough? Do they like being someplace you leave behind? This whole discussion stemmed from a place that had great education and is now circling the drain. I don’t think communities enjoy that kind of thing.

    A boomer who provided a great education for their kids in 90s probably wasn’t expecting to grow old in a community with 3rd world healthcare and lunch ladies teaching their grandkids classes because the school won’t hire woke teachers.
