I would be fine with people commuting to suburbs, if they weren't endangering my life and sucking up a disproportionate share of the tax dollars to fund their lavish land use.

Cordon cars to freeways, make tailpipe emissions filter through the passenger air cabin filter, and stop using tax dollars to make more roads. Then I'll have no problem with suburbanites.

Although, whether or no it's fair for children to be subject to the fantastical whimsical lifestyle choices forced on them by their parents is a complicated matter. I sure wish I had a normal childhood. Suburban dreams of my parents kept that from me.
