We're not all bad. We put up with a lot of crap. I don't just mean from city people, I mean from our own people when some of us don't quite fit in. There's nowhere you can go so you have to learn to deal with it. It builds character. I think it's actually good for a person to have to deal with that early on in life. You learn not to take things for granted.
