[quote=Anonymous]No, they are not.  But as in any community, you'll find parents you like and want to get to know and spend time with, others that are nice and you know as an aquaintance and some that throw up a red flag and you procced with caution and finally those that you would find to be just awful and don't like. You will find that in public too...and on sports teams...everywhere

I think different schools do have different cultures though, so if that is important to you, look for a school with a friendly community feel.  Our school definitely has that, it is welcoming and warm.  On the spectrum above, I'd say only 5% are in the 'red flag' or 'just awful' category.  And even with them, I could have a friendly chat if needed just because that's the culture....we would both make the effort. ( of course they don't know I find them to be in those categories...so there is no ill will there)

As for DCUM, try to ignore the 'noise' of the rude or selfish posters.  I find it appalling at times.  [/quote]
