[quote=Anonymous]The problem with your husband's approach is that it sends the signal to your DS that he is being written off -- no need to pay for private school for this guy because he isn't cutting it. And I can tell you from my own experience with older kids at privates that it can be toxic all around when parents see the school solely as a ticket to an Ivy. Its an attitude that permeates through the class. I think you know this. The most important thing is to have your DS at a school where he can learn and be happy. If thats the case at his current school, he should stay; otherwise he should leave. I have a DC who left a Big 3 and has flourished elsewhere. Its just a school. If it isn't the right school, find the right school.[/quote]
