[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People get triggered because they know deep down the private is better and their public is inferior. No matter how delicate you are around them, the nitwits will still get triggered because that's how insecure unstable people are.[/quote] That's an interesting take. I know a lot of folks who sent their kids either through DCPS through 12 or moved to private for HS. One family I know decided to delay private till HS and built an addition on their house with the anticipated savings. A few may have had momentary pangs of something, but all are pretty happy with DCPS for their kids. A little grumbling about last year's remote learning but pretty much just that. All these kids are ending up in comparable colleges, so hard to see any as nitwits.[/quote] It's not just about college--if that is all you care about go to Anacostia High School...Admissions would love to admit someone intelligent from that school. Its about the complete private school experience--education, life long friendships, connections, a more enjoyable experience, better food, smaller classes, a safer environment etc....you can learn to play golf great at a public golf course. But it is much nicer at a exclusive private club--quality of the course, facilities, people too name it. I know numerous parents that made a "profit" from their kids going to private schools. They got so much additional business via the connections that they made....they were self employed entrepreneurs or in financial sales. [/quote] Is this parody?[/quote] It’s really insulting to private school parents to portray them as awful enough to write something like this. One thing that I am learning from this thread is that money can’t buy happiness. So many sad people writing about how jealous others are of them. [/quote]
