Though, it does happen. Just not as bad as people make it out to be. I went to a small school in a small town and believe me when I say that we are anything but small. Most people in my class were above 6 foot tall. Though, I was only 5’10”. I was actually pretty small compared to most. It sucked. We were also a fairly intelligent class. At least half of us graduated with 7 science, 6 math and 3 foreign language credits. We considered you an idiot if you didn’t take Spanish and French and make it to pre-cal before graduation. So, you are just following stereotypes. I don’t know the statistics but there were no inbreeds in my community, as far as I know, and we were all pretty decent when it came to intelligence and size.<br><b>References : </b><br> The country inbreeds are mostly just fictional stories.
