[quote=Anonymous]NP here, only read the first few pages, but...
Why is it so controversial to say that if a child's behavior consistently does not meet minimum standards at a private institution then the child will not be permitted to return?

Every child, even those struggling with behavior challenges, has a right to an education, but not everyone has a right to an education at a specific private school.

I don't care whether the family is full-pay or full-scholarship, whether the child's skin is one color or another, who daddy/mom/grandparent/etc is, or any other factor mentioned on this thread -- if a child consistently cannot meet age and grade appropriate behavior standards as defined by the school, then the child should not be permitted to continue to attend.

If my child's behavior is inappropriate in a public place and correcting the behavior hasn't worked, we leave and go home because she has lost the privilege to be wherever we were since I won't allow her to infringe on others' rights. This is what most people say responsible parents should do, so why is the standard different for a school parents are paying to provide the best possible education for their children?

Clearly my view is not in line with the consensus on DCUM, so could someone please help me understand  what I'm missing in thinking this way?[/quote]
