[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The idea of any young kids being judged as worthy or not of a certain school is exactly why I moved to the suburbs where private school admissions are way more relaxed. I’m from NYC and the cutthroat nature existed as early as preschool admissions. What sets a two year old apart? A eleven year old? A fourteen year old? They’re all just kids and that’s all they should be expected to be. Completely insane. Sorry it stings OP - it’s just an insane bubble. For what it’s worth, and again it’s not DC, my friends who were at Horace Mann etc growing up. were not exceptional- they just had exceptionally rich and well connected parents. [/quote] Did your friends grow up to lead similar lives to their parents? If so, was it the school or the parents or both?[/quote]
