I’m from a middle class, conservative family in a poor country. Compared to my richer, status seeking classmates, I can handle myself a lot better socially and emotionally. I’m also disabled, that means the social divide is a lot tougher to crack. In fact, I get shot dirty looks by the same classmates. It’s not because They don’t like the fact I participate in my classes, it’s just that they don’t like the fact that someone who doesn’t have the same status can equal them in a lot of ways.
