[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before this thread degenerates any further I would like to thank the St. Alban's parents who shared details ( see above) about the atmosphere of the school. It was helpful and I appreciate it.

To the last poster: doesn't matter your race, the world is a little colder and a little harder for all our children with attitudes like yours.[/quote]
Groups for which it is harder and colder than affluent white American boys:
--African-American working class kids
--Caucasian working class kids
--Latino working class kids
--girls on every continent except (arguably) North America and Europe
--boys on every continent except North America and Europe
Etc.

When white males stop dominating disproportionately in business, politics, law, media, and income level, then I might believe the sad tale of woe about affluent boys being treated as" defective girls" in school.  The attempt to claim victim status is absurd.  If you like all-boys education because you think your son learns better, or focuses better, or the school works well for active kids, then fine--but to suggest the co-Ed alternative is damaging per se and favors girls per se just puts you in the long line of Americans who act aggrieved by everything and everyone.

I don't think anyone is portraying " a sad tale of woe" here or attempting to claim victim status here, except You and that is plain[/quote]
