I'm not from what is called a " one Horse town" - a place with not alot happening - but we brought our children up in a pretty remote rural village.
Any sort of place with people in it - let alone a city - was pretty difficult to adjust to .
Why I didn't foresee that is a mystery - we did move in to a town as the boys got older but it maybe had two or three horses - not a tremendous amount going on .. My mistake I think . Rural tranquility has a lot going for it, but not all of the time .
