My girlfriend and I were planning on going camping today, but my girlfriend's white suburban middle class parents wouldn't let us, saying it was 'dangerous'. Both her and I agree that white middle class people are way too afraid of everything for some reason, but I don't know why. Any ideas?
I'll always remember my dad trying to talk me out of a hiking trip with a friend in the winter because he thought we might get lost and die in the snow or skid out in ice on the road. It was above freezing.
