Why? What exactly are kids and parents doing at Whitman that others aren’t doing? I have a kid there and honestly don’t see anything out of the ordinary. Are there rude and obnoxious people? Sure, but no more than anywhere else that I’ve lived. |
| We moved from a W to private. Privates can "counsel out" problem students. Publics can't. |
Translation: expel |
They should give RJ a try. I hear it works miracles when done correctly. |
Oh please every school has mean kids. This is timeless. Your kid is most likely the issue. You wanted them to be friends with the mean crowd you pushed it. Mine did just fine at a W school. They have amazing friends. Amazing smart kids who have graduated and have fantastic jobs and are intelligent. Every school has bullies, crap parents etc. MAGA go back to your hole. |
Then you are one of the problem parents in some sort of serious denial. . Seriously. |
Point proven. Nasty parent. Nasty kids |
Actually, I’m not. But I think you might be. I’m not saying there aren’t obnoxious people there. There are. But there are obnoxious people everywhere. You need to learn to deal with it or ignore it. Not go crying to DCUM every time someone does something you don’t like. You still haven’t said what the people do at Whitman that is so much worse than anywhere else in the area. |
You want PP to prove her accusation? How dare you?? |
| Kids giving teachers a tough time, parents as well, racism, antisemitism, parents of girls on rowing teams pushing kids to compete when they know the coach is a predator. Need anymore rocket scientist? Pp |
That is so dumb. Welcome to America lady. |
No they do not. My kids have been at the Big 3 problems there as bad if not worse than public. Privates have no mechanisms and hardly ever expel prob kids daddy or mommy just donate more. |
+100 it's deplorable |
Agree the issues are different I think the expectation from parents that their child will have a premium public school experience is problematic. I think students pick up on their parents' elitism and entitlement. |
you can't + your own post PP. |
