It’s no big secret that our social circles tend to shape who we are, what we like, and how we think. We’re always subconsciously soaking up other people’s values, priorities, and beliefs, and this is just as true for adults as it is for kids. So, as you can imagine, it’s incredibly important to have a healthy and active social life, where you have a solid circle of friends and your family is supportive and understanding. Unfortunately, there are those who grow up without these fundamental things – whether it’s due to their family being distant or because their parents don’t care what their children tend to do in their free time.

17-year-old's wealthy parents become emotional when hearing their son prioritizes "lower class" people over them

Rich parents are horrified after finding out their son prefers “lower class” people to them 🤯

A 17-year-old male's world was turned upside down after his parents found out the people he was spending time with were from lower-class families.

He finally escaped the exclusive private school he was enrolled in and joined a new school with a few students from low-income families. He found friends and love in Garfield and Eduardo and their families have been more supportive of him than his own. After his parents found out, they were horrified and his mother started to cry. What should he do now? Read on to the Redditor's reactions to find out what the internet had to say.
