[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]20:17 is the type of parent/person that St. Andrew's is happy to avoid.  Your experience is your own and St. Andrew's may not have been a good fit for your child but that does not mean very smart "top" kids don't go there.  Perhaps the administrators at St. Andrew's knew that your parenting style was the type that they would rather avoid dealing with you and sent your child away.  I cannot imagine any school would send away a bright kid.  But they will send away parents whose egocentric attitudes are considered destructive and irritating rather than confident and forceful and beneficial to the school.

And about the kids and parents who go there not being motivated, what part of me making over 150K at 25 years old as an attorney with licenses before 2 states translates into unmotivated or academically weak?  What, pray-tell, were you doing at 25?  Were you on the moon?  Were you CEO of a major corporation?  Who knows but YOU ARE a tool.   You know as well as every single person reading this that you would love for you child to succeed at whatever he or she does and if that happens to be as a lawyer, you know you want him/her to do what I did or clerk for SCOTUS.  So whatever you think about your neighbors is irrelevant unless your entire parenting compass is keeping up with or surpassing the Jones of your neighborhood.  Ugghhh--you disgust me.  St. Andrew's dodged a bullet with you![/quote]

This is a little strange.[/quote]

What part do you think is strange?  Your comment is vague.[/quote]
