[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was my husband and his mom.

His mom sacrificed to send him to private and he never appreciated it.  Why?   He thinks it was a foolish financial decision.  His mom’s retirement was delayed for years because of it.  He could have been sent to a solid local school.  [/quote]
NP here. [b] What age did your DH come to this conclusion? [/b] I think age 6 would be early for that.

OP I expected you to say that your DD had been playing with neighborhood kids during the snow days, and that she was asking to leave her private, so she could go to school with them.  I do think a lot of elementary kids hit a wall in March, April or May.  They're tired.[/quote]

In his 30s when he decided on public his own kids and realized that just like us, his family had a good neighborhood school their taxes dollars went to and they should have used.  His parents complain about retirement money but spent close to a million educating two children and this was years ago.  It simply isn’t a good decision to send your kids to private unless you’re insanely wealthy or your children truly can’t receive a decent education from their public school.  [/quote]
