I personaly do not feel there is anything wrong with wanting to seperate yourself from that which you feel is "bad" (for lack of a better word) so that you and your family can feel secure. What becomes a problem is when you begin to feel "better" than those you left. My mother and I literally moved 2 miles up the street and found that our new neighborhood was extremely safer than the one we left however we still go back and get involved with their yard sales and community programs. lol I've never felt "torn" about leaving the nieghborhood because in the long run we (my mother and I) had to make a choice that worked best for us. Cant please everybody lol
