[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh, why do parents put their young children in these situations?  Are you not ashamed for gambling with their self-esteem just so you’d have a shot at increasing your own social capital?[/quote]

Kids are stronger than you give the credit for. They can handle a little rejection in life and it builds their self esteem to not be crushed by it. And you are ludicrous if you think all parents go through this crap for themselves.[/quote]

Yeah, but a lot do.  I listen to private school parents spew all of this bullshit about why it’s so much better but why would so many feel the need to talk about it so much if it wasn’t all about them. You people are disgusting.[/quote]

PP, you need help.  I hope you get some.

Some private school parents get defensive because people like you attack them.  When we decided not to attend our local public, which was highly regarded, we were attacked by several so-called friends who accused us of, variously, being stupid, wasting money, thinking we were better than everyone else, and more. It was all about them, nothing about us.

Our DCs are thriving at privates.  Perhaps they would have in public, too, but we chose private.

Anyone who responds to others’ choices - choices that don’t affect them — with so much vitriol is sick.  Get help.  [/quote]
