So if i was to move over to some suberb in the States and i would be regarded as middle class, probably a job in IT hopefully a family/kids some day, do you think i would have any problem fitting in.....?. How do you think my kids would get on in an American school?

Yeah, just don't present yourself like you hate all humanity that lives in America. People will take notice after a while, and it will only be harder for you to get accepted.

Just stay chill and you'll be cool and accepted in the culture.

Everybody fits in here. I think what the avarage american doesn't like are those who insist on everyone else changing to adapt with "their" culture instead of trying to fit in with ours and having a common culture is what unites people in a country together, imo. Just like it says on the dollar: "Out of many, one"

There are some people who, sad to say, would prefer you not being here. But if you do come over, I'll personally help you beat these people up and then show you around the U.S.

Not excessive at all. It's either suicide or moving to Canada for me at the moment.

The suburbs are a nice, accepting place. I live in a middle-class area in the suburbs, and there are people from all over the world in just my one little neighborhood. Neither of my neighbors are from this country, and they both fit in fine. We wave when we see each other, have small talk every now and then, and sometimes help each other out with small projects.

Yeah, I disagree completely. Living in America isn't that bad. In fact, it isn't bad at all.

Life is what you make it, no matter where you live.

Exactly. I would say life is going swell for me right now. My family is all nearby, I live in a quiet neighborhood, and I go to a decent school (only the other students are bad, not the education) :)

Define, "American culture".

A condensed form of paradox in which two contradictory words are used together, as in "sweet sorrow" or "original copy." See also: paradox.

I live in Little Rock, Arkansas and "generally intolerant" isn't how I'd describe my town. Yes the smaller towns are more conservative, but any medium to large size city in the south is fairly tolerant.

Move to North Little Rock Arkansas. BIll Clinton built up the education system so well. Since moving down to Louisiana, I miss NLR. Plus, houses are very cheap, and there is a good community to be had.

The educational system in Louisiana is a joke. Plus, if your kids were to go to a public school, get ready for them to complain about kids who cant shut up because their parents didnt teach them.
