The reason why people would be confused is because you mention in the first post that she is upper middle class and that the mother buys 'luxury' items in front of you.
Middle class in the Western sense isnt as applicable and the gulf of those with and without here is vast.
Yeah, I do see how I may have confused people there but alas, no way to edit my original post. You know, the problem is even I can only guess as to their status, really. There were so many conflicting things I saw and heard - and the luxury thing was largely a matter of keeping up appearances and rubbing my comparative lack of purchasing power in my face.
