[quote=Anonymous]I agree, PP, and I can't even believe this stupid idea even has any traction. Look, I CHOOSE to live in DC, where I've lived for 30 years. My parents and siblings live here. We sent our kids to our very good local elementary school and knew full well that we would probably go private for middle and upper school. We considered moving to the burbs but decided that, for a number of reasons, we would stay put and send our kids to private. There are MANY good private schools in DC and in Virginia and Maryland, and they are equally open to all qualified children, no matter where they live. OP, your child lost out to kids from DC as well as kids from the suburbs, and you're exhibiting a serious case of sour grapes. None of us are entitled to a spot in any private school because of where we live, and it is RIDICULOUS to suggest that DC kids should get some kind of preference. Quit your whining.[/quote]
