Living on a farm can give one a very "skewed" view of life. You can raise children who believe hard work is a virtue. The children (and you) can start to believe that everyone is friendly, and someone will always come running to help you if your family needs it. People who live on farms come to believe that "a little manure never hurt nobody." People who live on farms also, quiet often buy their "fashionable" clothes at the feed store, where they also go to buy a pretty new halter for their horse.
