[quote=Anonymous]Affluent household with 3 kids in private here. At under $120K for 3 kids, we were buyers. Now looking at $165-$180K in the near future, we’re strategizing an exit. Forget affordability. It’s the whole premise of shelling all this for kids to be stressed. Then there’s the nitpicking over stats that no one who’s actually living life to the fullest cares about. Add tutoring, sports, music, summer camp, and now therapy, the cost of “rigor,” “health,” and “exposure” is reaching $200K and will only grow. That’s excluding the kids we hire to chauffer our kids around. $500K pretax, $1m every-other-year into a system that brings out insecurity, competitiveness, instability Half the parents at Sidwell and other privates left college wanting to make the world a better place. We’ve completely lost the plot.[/quote]
