Right now i think that the suburbs are the best place to have kids and raise kids in, they have better health systems and health cares. However i think i will skim "Price of Privilege" by Madeline Levine, It will hopefully give me incite to the child's thought and reasons of certain behaviors, and because the book is based in the suburbs it would tell me something about that as well.
Right now i am really looking for a book that would tell me more about how children react to different environments, whether it be city or suburbs. Any help would be more than appreciated
