Education and family life

I just thought I might add a little more about school and family life here. In case you were wondering, it is the same date, time and place as last post. Anyway, wealthy families send their children to school through high school, and some go to college. The poorer families will find it hard to get education, but there are many schools these days that can support the poorer families. These children quit school earlier than the wealthy.

As for family life, it is very important to the people of the Dominican Republic. Many families live with extended family, and loyalty to the family comes before anything else. To Dominicans, family is the core of stability.
