[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ah, but it's funny: I've seen the argument made many times here that if those of us in non-wealthy areas *truly* valued our children's education, we'd live in a tiny apartment in a W district, rather than a SFH in the DCC or wherever.

So, really, the only acceptable answer is to be rich enough to afford a SFH in a highly-ranked school district.  Unsurprising.[/quote]

The thing is, there will always be people who look down on other's choices. There are people who think that if you *truly* valued your kid's education, you'd send them to private school. There are some who don't consider DC-area private schools worthy and think you should be sending your kid to exclusive NYC-area private schools or NE boarding schools.

At the end of the day, just do what works for your family and tell everyone else to piss off! :) [/quote]

Ha!  True.  I'm thrilled to tell people to piss off around this issue, I was just thinking of a thread from yesterday literally telling people to find apartments if they couldn't afford a SFH...  presumably so they can be looked down on?  Fun times. :)[/quote]
