[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]what's turning people against OP is the SAHM part, because many of us would like that luxury as well but realize that we can't afford both that luxury and the luxury of private school. so it's galling to be asked to fund someone else's luxury good (private school) so she can keep her existing luxury (not working). we all want the best for our kids OP, and most of us have to make some choice about our priorities.

OP - i think you should really consider looking into the teacher remission and FA policies at the schools where you are interested.  Many of the teachers at my kids' school send their kids there, so I'm pretty sure they are getting some assistance. You wouldn't be able to stay home with your 2nd, but you might be able to financially swing it that way.[/quote]

I don't agree with the first paragraph of this OP -- being as SAHM does not seem like a luxury to me, sounds like a great sacrifice -- one that I'm not interested in. However, the second paragraph is good advice. Check out schools that offer remission and have onsite daycare for free. When we where looking a few years ago I recall Beauvoir offering both to teachers and staff.[/quote]
