STEVE BRINKS doesn't understand good ol' red-blooded American males ...he grew up out of touch with America.. the problem of being a "missionary kid".. and then suddenly parachuting into America when it's time for college. his parents tried to give the kids the best of everything as missionary kids..it was NOT a hardship contrary to popular misunderstandings of missionary life .. the Brinks were missionaries but gave their kids the best of everything, EXCEPT you cannot artificially make it happen the way they tried to do.. the only way to gain credibility as an "American boy" is to grow up in the American environment roughing it out with the other classmates..playing sports & doing the academics and sticking it out during the good, the bad, & the ugly. Missionary parents such as the Brinks tried to raise their kids with all the advantages but didn't give them the tough advantage of actually being American when they were kids. Nobody can teach it from abroad..you have to live it, to experience it.. until it is in your DNA.
