[quote=Anonymous]Here is my perspective as- Blended family- ✔ New money- ✔ Single parent- ✔ Other parent not involved- ✔ Was on food stamps as recent as 8 years ago- ✔ Do I feel out of my league sometimes? Yes! When I let this mentality take over, I feel awkward at social events and it's harder to connect. When I remember all that I've accomplished in half the time these other parents accomplished it with twice the amount of obstacles, all of that doubt and awkwardness goes out the window. They can pass judgement, but the only person's opinion that matters is the opinion I have of myself. I'm doing this for my child and to give them the opportunity they earned and deserve, no social group is going to make me doubt that decision. We chose a school that is big into giving back to the community. Because of this, we don't feel like a charity case, rather an example of how life changing community can be. [/quote]
