You are EMBARASSING yourself and NCS. Stop.

You have this person's IP address? You can out her as someone who has a child at NCS?

What is embarrassing is your relentless attack on another school. We get it - you are bitter. You need to let go of your anger, because it is starting to make you look demented.

Thanks, PP.



Replying to you own posts is even more embarrassing.

I posted that you are demented. Someone else thanked me. Go ahead. Ask Jeff to verify.

Yup. I'm the poster who talked about people involved with the book. Go ahead, ask Jeff to check us out -- we're different people. To make this even more interesting, I'll toss in that my DD was accepted to NCS but turned it down for a (horrors!) MoCo magnet. I simply have a need to correct bad info when I see it -- call me compulsive that way.

Okay, so your daughter never went to NCS but you want to discredit people who say it has a negative social atmosphere. It really doesn't matter if the book/movie was based on NCS or not. I had a child there, I can tell you first hand that there are considerable social problems. How can you know differently if your child wasn't/isn't there?

11:27 here. Only the last statements are mine.

As I understand it, the author attended Maret and was shocked by her experience at NCS where she was a teacher. After leaving NCS the author taught/consulted with various schools, but she was only a full time teacher at NCS.

She was never a teacher. She was brought in to help with the social dynamic in the school and completely betrayed the girls by writing the book. She didn't help them while she was there, either. I am an NCS parent who has been unhappy with the school, but the book and the woman who wrote it are meaningless. And the problem with NCS isn't mean girls.

Why was she brought in to "help with the social dynamic" if there weren't already problems at NCS. Sounds like she exposed the problem and NCS defenders feel betrayed. You're right the problem isn't just mean girls, it's a number of other things; cold, unsupportive, super competitive (non-collaborative) atmosphere, out of touch administration and very little parent community.

I'm PP and I agree with you. if you read my post I'm clearly not an NCS defender. Its just that the whole thing with the book is a ridiculous distraction.

Mean girls don't just come from the cabbage patch. Most NCS mean girls are on that path before they set foot in NCS,but the environment doesn't help.

Way to miss the previous poster's point.

I get your point. But what's odd to me as that NCS moms are often also STA moms, and the experience at STA is so opposite mean. In my book, it has to do with the fact that they are girls, in an all girls environment, which just accentuates the crazy we're all capable of, especially in the middle school/teen years.

No, the difference has to do with the leadership of the two schools.

The relationship between a mother and her son is very different than the relationship between a mother and her daughter.

O.M.G. As a mom with a DD and a DS, both of whom are thriving in public schools, thank you, I have to say this is total BS. You've never observed that parent-child relationships vary so much by kid and by parent? I come to this thread for a little schadenfreude, to make myself happy my kids are in public so I don't have to deal with obsessive private school nutcases like you.

PP that must be the most incoherent message posted in this forum. What's your point?
