Do you blame your parents now that you are an adult for raising you in a rural area?

RED: Do you blame your parents now that you are an adult for raising you in a rural area?
Many parents from the 80’s era believed that raising their children a rural or suburban environment was best and safest choice for their families. Now some children from that era are “blaming” their parents because they weren’t exposed enough…to crime, violence, and multiple races. So now these kids are living in dnese city environments.. seemingly to make up for it, exposing themselves to the crime + violence that their parents worked so hard to sheild them from…what do you think? Will they move back to the suburbs? What should the parents do now? How guilty should the parents feel?

Parents should never feel guilty unless there has been some sort of abuse and living in a rural area hardly constitutes abuse. People prefer to blame their parents for ridiculous reasons, such as this one, in order to excuse their own shortcomings and avoid any responsibility for their own lives. Who knows what people will do or where they will live? And whatever the children decide to do after growing up is up to them and the parents bear no blame one way or the other, that is just puerile.

I loved living in the hills/rainforest when I was a kid- best days of my life!!! Tree-ferns, bubbling creeks, parrots,cockatoos,wombats, our own horses, heaps of pets,heaps of room, heaps of freedom. Clean air, good clean fun. Billy carts, club houses, ‘wars’ with other kids..( dung,not guns,lol)
Gum trees,azaleas,rhododendrons. Chilly nights in front of an open fireplace. Roasting chestnuts we’d picked, eating buckets of wild blackberries,plums,apples.
Why would I blame my parents..for what?
I have lived in many cities, travelled all over Australia.Living in the country with our 2 kids now, who are happy-safe-healthy. Education through open discussion and communication is the way to prevent trouble later in life..not through exposing kids to the ugly side of life at an early age,that makes no sense.

I raised my children in a very rural setting. They loved it when they was young. They’re grown now and can choose. Hopefully they would never blame me for ,trying to protect them.
