[quote=LEONARDO,329898]Instead of criticizing her, I think she is honest. She is not the only girl from rural China who has the idea to shake off poverty. As Dodger said, "Women in rural communities have few if any chance of advancing themselves, or of improving their life." For a rural girl who has endured the hardship of living the poor village, she is suffering from kinda "poverty-trauma". She knows quite well how hard a poor family's life is. She received a diploma which might be the only way out for many kids in the countryside to jump out of poverty. Would she marry a poor man and let the poverty pass down? I remember a line from Tim Kasser's book <The High Price of Materialism>: "Poverty is sometimes contagious."[/quote]
