[quote=Anonymous]I have two stepchildren. I try to stay out of most of the major parenting decisions (like which school to send them to) unless I'm asked for my opinion. Sometimes I offer my opinion and I'm wondering if I should in this situation. We're new to the area, and I just got around to googling the school that my SC will attend. Their new school, which is in their mom's neighborhood, is ranked a 5 on greatschools.org; the school in our neighborhood is ranked 9. Kids split time evenly between both households, so they could go to either school. Their mother made the decision to send them to her school (for reasons unbeknownst to me, though I suggest it's just pure convenience) and DH has agreed. I don't think my DH has idea of the school rankings, but I also think DH tries really hard to be accommodating and avoid arguments with the kids' mom. So, with one week left before school starts, do I bring this up? Is it that huge of an issue? The kids are entering K and 2nd grade, FWIW. (I'm also posting this on the Parenting - Special Concerns board but I don't think that gets as many views as this board does.)[/quote]
