There are more well educated people in DR than your imagination can think... There is also a lot more people living better than you do in DR than your eyes can see...

Very true. All of our Dominican nieces and nephews were/are educated in DR, I think all of them went to Catholic elementary schools in the capital. They all took English classes in the afternoon, some speak it better than others. Every one of them has gone on to university, four have graduated, four are currently there, one is in high school. The eldest is a professional in Philadelphia. The next is an industrial engineer who was making well into six figures in Oklahoma before she and her husband relocated to St. Croix, where she's making even more. I could go on.
I also know Dominicans whose children went to prestigious colleges in the USA. None of them went to Carol Morgan.
I agree with Cris Colon - the family is SO important. It means everything. In ANY country.
