I dunno if I lament that quite so much. I mean, I'd sooner have died than stayed in the town where I grew up (indeed, I'd quite likely be long since dead by my own hand if I had tried that).

The pros definitely outweigh the cons, and I'd actually be pretty disappointed for his sake if my kid ended up back here.
