[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]News flash. Life isn’t fair. Sorry.  It’s never going to be. And the more we push the narrative, the more the people in the middle are going to vote in their own best interest to stop their money from helping everyone poorer than them. Wake up. This isn’t where to focus your energy. [/quote]

It's ridiculous. The people running these foundations and PTAs in the W feeder districts are NOT the middle. I can't tell you how many wealthy people I know who are convinced that they are middle class. I even know someone who lives in Wood Acres and considers themselves lower middle class!!

The people being hurt by this inequity aren't just the poor black and brown immigrant kids. I know plenty of white, college educated professionals who can't afford to buy a home in the "good" school districts in MCPS and send their kids to high FARMS schools. The ACTUAL middle class is hurting here. [/quote]

You are demanding people act outside their own interests and the interests of their children. It won’t work. Save your passion for helping the school your child is at. Channel it into your PTA. Humans are pretty selfish and gross. This is the world we’ve created. [/quote]

How is selfish and gross to want to build the best community you can for your child? Isn't more selfish to not participate in the PTA at all and just let others do the work that you could be doing?[/quote]
