[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These kids are working harder than they ever will for the rest of their lives, unless they go to med school. Why put them through that? Do you go to work all day and then play a sport and then come home and do several more hours of work? It’s crazy. [/quote]

I actually don't think that is true.  Most of them aren't working harder than their parents.[/quote]

This.  Do you not know what it’s like to work in biglaw?  It is an all consuming life with vacations canceled or rescheduled.   [/quote]

This.  I work harder in a week than my kid does in a year.[/quote]

It's astounding how many private school parents will say something like that in one breath and then proclaim loudly how their kids have to be prepared to do the same.

No doubt, there are many nice perks, but making yourself a slave to your income, lifestyle, or private school homework load is still making yourself a slave. I hope some kids get a choice to opt out if that's their choice one day.[/quote]
