Never Sacrifice

This is from a television review, but apropos of my feelings (i.e. City>Suburbs):

It’s a question that looms among many urbanites who are either planning to start a family or have just had their first child: Do you make the move to the suburbs? Do you give up the vibrancy of city living—the restaurants, the neighborhoods, the music and culture, the progressiveness—for more space, better schools, and the sickening probability that Bennigan’s will be the best option for dinner? It’s painful to consider, but necessary, because you want to do right by your kids and that involves making some compromises.

Fuck right by my kids. My kids will grow knowing who the drug dealers and the crazy people who talk to ghosts and the homeless really are (p.s. drug dealers>crazy people who talk to ghosts>homeless... categories non-exclusive).
