[QUOTE="nlj, post: 619348, member: 17650"] Yes that's true, people don't need to be middle-class to have a happy and fulfilling life, in fact I'm sure many middle-class people have the opposite. My son says everyone judges him by their own standards and that, if they're disgusted that he hasn't taken a shower for a month or more and doesn't have a toilet, than that's their problem. But he finds it really annoying that people judge him and doesn't seem to have any empathy with their attitude. He thinks that everyone should understand what he wants to do and why he wants to do it and he gets very angry if challenged about it. That makes me think that he is not really secure himself about what he is doing and how he is living. If he really believed in all this eco-warrior stuff and fighting for a cause etc, then he would be far more 'together' about explaining and defending his choices. [/QUOTE]
